The Southampton Arts Center will screen Bing Liu’s documentary “Minding The Gap” on Friday, March 29 at 7 p.m. The film was a nominee for the 2019 Academy Awards Best Documentary Feature category. Compiled using more than 12 years of footage shot in his hometown of Rockford, Illinois, in the film, Mr. Liu searches for correlations between his skateboarder friends’ turbulent upbringings and the complexities of modern-day masculinity. In the end, the filmmaker ultimately weaves a story of generational forgiveness while exploring the precarious gap between childhood and adulthood.

Admission to the film is $10 ($7 Friends of SAC) at Southampton Arts Center, 25 Jobs Lane, Southampton Village. The series continues with “Hale County This Morning, This Evening,” a film by RaMell Ross, on April 5. Visit southamptonartscenter.org for details.
