Events Description

 
A comedic showdown between truth and facts set in the world of non-fiction publishing.

The story follows Jim Fingal (Shulman), a fresh out of Harvard fact checker for a prominent but sinking New York magazine. John D’Agata (Immanuel) is a talented writer with a transcendent essay about a high stakes event concerning a teenage boy – an essay that could save the magazine from collapse. When Jim is assigned by Emily Penrose, the magazine’s Editor in Chief (Walsh) to fact check D’Agata’s article, the two come head-to-head in a comedic yet gripping battle over facts versus fiction.

“The Lifespan of a Fact” is not only a story brimming with comedic banter and debate about “truth”, but it also offers themes of story being a conduit to connect us in our humanity, and trust in journalism and the media.

Starring: Ben Immanuel, Loretta Walsh, Tal Shulman

Directed by: Jennifer Clement
