"This is this place of imagination and dreaming." Kino Lorber has released an official trailer for an art doc called Museum Town, from journalist-turned-director Jennifer Trainer. It premiered at last year's SXSW Film Festival, and launches in virtual cinemas this month. A rural American town suffering economically from factory closures finds an unconventional route to recovery with the help of MASS MoCA. Directed by Jennifer Trainer, a former journalist and one of the original builders, and narrated by Meryl Streep. Today, MASS MoCA is the largest museum for contemporary art in the world—but just three decades ago, its vast brick buildings were the abandoned relics of a shuttered factory. This documentary tells how such a wildly improbable transformation came to be. The film also follows various artists, including Nick Cave as he builds the monumental installation “Until,” a reflection on gun violence, race, and the American Dream. ›››
