In this panel, we bring perspectives from production executives and risk management & insurance professionals to explore real-life production disasters – ranging from weather delays to death of cast family members to #MeToo related turnover and reputation damages – and how you can learn from these incidents and prevent them (or at least contain their consequences).

In the name of his newly created religion, the great Russian novelist has renounced his noble title, his property and even his family in favor of poverty, vegetarianism and even celibacy. After she’s born him thirteen children! When Sofya then discovers that Tolstoy’s trusted disciple, Chertkov (Paul Giamatti)—whom she despises—may have secretly convinced her husband to sign a new will, leaving the rights to his iconic novels to the Russian people rather than his very own family, she is consumed by righteous outrage. This is the last straw. Using every bit of cunning, every trick of seduction in her considerable arsenal, she fights fiercely for what she believes is rightfully hers.

Short List: Features and Short List: Shorts each curate a selection of nonfiction films that the festival’s programming team considers to be among the year’s strongest contenders for Oscars and other awards. For the first time, the Short List: Features will vie for juried awards in four categories: Directing, Producing, Cinematography and Editing, and a Best Director prize will also be awarded in the Short List: Shorts section. The festival also announced the launch of a new section, Winner’s Circle, highlighting films that have won top prizes at international festivals, but might fly below the radar of American audiences.

    For Immediate Release Contact: Barbara Briggie-Smith or Jordan Powers Tel: 515.271.0343 or 515.271.0344 E-mail: [email protected] or [email protected] Des Moines Art Center to host 2020 Academy Award® Nominated Short Films Des Moines, IA (January 2020) — The Des Moines Art Center is honored to once again host the Academy Award® Nominated Short Films. The films will be screened in Levitt Auditorium Friday January 31 – Sunday, February 2. The films are free but reservations are required.* Visit desmoinesartcenter/calendar to reserve your seat. “Movies aren’t likely the first or even second thought that comes to mind when people think about the Des Moines Art Center, but since 2013, the Art Center has consistently “sold out” screenings of the Academy Award nominated short films,” said Director of Education Jill Featherstone. “There are three categories of films (documentary, live-action, and animation) that most film-going audiences haven’t had the opportunity to see in more traditional theaters, so when I learned about this program many years ago, I wondered how it would be received, and now seven years later the demand is high as ever! I think the short subject is particularly popular because folks can see a diverse range of stories, styles, and genres in a relatively brief period of time.” Documentary Films (160 minutes running time) Friday, January 31 Show times: 1:30 pm, 6:30 pm Rated R Live-Action Films (104 minutes running time) Saturday, February 1 Show times: 1 pm, 4:30 pm Rated R Animated Films (85 minutes running time) Sunday, February 2 Show times: 1 pm, 4:30 pm Rated PG-13 Snow dates are reserved on Thursday, February 6 and Sunday, February 9 (times TBD).
