  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Get Out is a 2017 horror film directed by Jordan Peele. It follows Chris Washington, a young African American man, who visits the family home of his white girlfriend, Rose. Initially, the visit seems uneventful, but Chris soon becomes uncomfortable with the odd behavior of the family and their strange connections with black servants. As the weekend progresses, he begins to uncover unsettling truths about his girlfriend’s family. The film explores themes of racism, privilege, and exploitation, blending social commentary with psychological horror and suspense. It challenges perceptions of race while creating a chilling, tense atmosphere. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Daniel Kaluuya was cast as the lead after impressing Jordan Peele during his audition. Kaluuya performed five takes of a crucial scene where his character has to cry, and each time, a single tear fell at the same moment in each take.” 
    
  “Jordan Peele mentioned that the title of the film is a nod to what he often hears from black audiences when watching horror films: they shout ‘Get out!’ at the screen. In the movie, both Rod and Andre say it to Chris.” 
    
  “The success of Get Out made Jordan Peele the first African-American writer, producer, and director to earn more than $100 million with his debut film.” 
    
  “Chance the Rapper was so impressed by Get Out that he bought out movie tickets at select Chicago theaters so people could watch the film for free. He tweeted about it, saying, ‘Just pull up with an ID and enjoy the movie.’”

  Dwell Time - A Memoir of Art...

  Rosa Lowinger

  What Kirkus describes as a "masterful revelation about life and art imitating each other in maintenance and repair" in a starred review, Dwell Time is an illuminating debut memoir by one of the few prominent Latinas in the field of art and architectural conservation; a moving portrait of a Cuban Jewish family’s intergenerational trauma; and a story about repair and healing that will forever change how you see the objects and places we cherish and how we manage damage and loss. 
   
  Renowned art conservator Rosa Lowinger spent a difficult childhood in Miami among people whose losses in the Cuban revolution, and earlier by the decimation of family in the Holocaust, clouded all family life. 
   
  After moving away to escape the “cloying exile’s nostalgia,” Lowinger discovered the unique field of art conservation, which led her to work in Tel Aviv, Philadelphia, Rome, Los Angeles, Honolulu, Charleston, Marfa, South Dakota, and Port-Au-Prince. Eventually returning to Havana for work, Lowinger suddenly finds herself embarking on a remarkable journey of family repair that begins, as it does in conservation, with an understanding of the origins of damage. 
   
  Inspired by and structured similarly to Primo Levi’s The Periodic Table, this first memoir by a working art conservator is organized by chapters based on the materials Lowinger handles in her thriving private practice – Marble, Limestone, Bronze, Ceramics, Concrete, Silver, Wood, Mosaic, Paint, Aluminum, Terrazzo, Steel, Glass and Plastics.  Through Lowinger’s relentless clear-eyed efforts to be the best practitioner possible while squarely facing her fraught personal and work relationships, she comes to terms with her identity as Cuban and Jewish, American and Latinx.
