PSIFS screening: Paper Heart + director Nicholas Jasenovec

Nicholas Jasenovec will be joining us for a special advance screening of Paper Heart on May 28!

The film doesn't hit theatres until August, but our guest has already snagged the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award at Sundance, where the film was also nominated for the Grand Jury Prize.

Did you meet John Cameron, the producer behind Fargo, The Big Lebowski & Lars and the Real Girl? We had a great turnout with 200 of our closest friends, and it was fun to have such an interactive audience.

What did you think? What did you learn? What's your favorite film of his?
