DESCRIPTION:A MONTH IN MADISON is an evening of short films from this year’s historic 
 Wisconsin protests, curated and hosted by San Francisco documentarian Joan 
 Juster of Juster Hill Productions, who spent a month in Madison on the 
 front lines of the protests. \n\nAs a documentarian with ties to Wisconsin, 
 Joan Juster wanted to bear witness to history, and help document the events 
 as they were happening. So on February 23rd she bought a one-way ticket to 
 Madison, arriving at the Capitol with $20 in her pocket and no plans as to 
 how to live, or how she would get home. She ended up staying a month, 
 recording stories and building alliances with other filmmakers, 
 journalists, historians and others who were both making history and 
 documenting it.\n\nIn A MONTH IN MADISON, Juster will tell the story of the 
 protests through short films by a variety of filmmakers, and her own 
 stories about what she experienced in Madison. The films include polished 
 mini-documentaries, never-released raw footage that shows what life was 
 really like among the protesters in the Capitol, rousing protest songs, and 
 interviews with protesters.  \n\n“Five months later, the protests are far 
 from over,” said Juster.  “The hardy Wisconsinites who protested in the 
 freezing cold are now pitching tents outside the Capitol in summer’s 
 heat. While the protesters may not be as visible, and the news cameras have 
 gone away, the real work of recall elections, canvassing, and rebuilding 
 their democracy continues.”\n\nAdmission to A MONTH IN MADISON is by $10 
 suggested donation. However, no one will be turned away for lack of funds. 
 \n\nA portion of the proceeds will benefit both San Francisco LaborFest and 
 Defend Wisconsin (www.defendwisconsin.org)\nTo arrange for interviews
