SUMMARY:Run Towards the Danger with Sarah Polley
DESCRIPTION:This event has been rescheduled for Tuesday\, June 28 at 7:30pm.\n \nPresented in partnership with VIFF.\n \nCanadian writer\, director\, and Academy Award-nominated actor Sarah Polley joins the Vancouver Writers Fest in celebration of her evocative release\, Run Towards the Danger. A complex and exquisite collection of essays\, the book captures keystone moments in Polley’s life\, as well as the “fallibility of memory\, the mutability of reality in the mind\, and the possibility of experiencing the past anew\, as the person you are now but were not then.” \nWell-known for her role in the miniseries for Margaret Atwood’s novel Alias Grace (2017)\, her directorial debut Away from Her (2006)\, and her Oscar-nominated adapted screenplay for Alice Munro’s “The Bear Came Over the Mountain\,” Polley’s Hollywood credentials are significant and trail-blazing. \nRun Towards the Danger is her dialogue between her past and present\, exploring what it is to live in a body which is constantly becoming\, learning\, and changing. “These are the most dangerous stories of my life\,” says Polley. “The ones I have avoided\, the ones I haven’t told\, the ones that have kept me awake on countless nights. As these stories found echoes in my adult life\, and then went another\, better way than they did in childhood\, they became lighter and easier to carry.” \nJoin us for a dazzling special event on June 28 as Sarah Polley sits down with Vancouver Writers Fest Artistic Director Leslie Hurtig for an intimate\, one-on-one conversation. \nPrices include all taxes and fees. \nCopies of Run Towards the Danger will be on sale at the event thanks to our bookseller\, Book Warehouse. This event is in-person\, and will be located at the Djavad Mowafaghian Cinema at Goldcorp Centre for the Arts in downtown Vancouver. Parking information is available here. \nThe Vancouver Writers Fest requires masks be worn indoors at all times for this event. Face masks continue to offer assurance and safety for many of the communities the VWF serves. We thank you for your understanding and consideration.
