TONIGHT 7PM @BrattleTheatre! For Boston area folks. We are thrilled to be presenting Jon-Sesrie Goff's AFTER SHERMAN, a formally ambitious, historically grounded, and emotionally powerful rumination that is committed to the personal and the political. Not to be missed...

Coming Soon • The DocYard presents Jon-Sesrie Goff's AFTER SHERMAN, a beautifully layered and expressionistic documentary about cultural, linguistic, relational, and propertized forms of inheritance in the South Carolina Lowcountry. Learn more at thedocyard.com
