Film Independent Members and guests are invited to join us for a live Q&A with The Penny Black director Joe Saunders, producer Alex Greer and featured subject Will Cassayd-Smith, moderated by Jenn Wilson (Senior Programmer, Film Independent).

The Penny Black is a nonfiction investigative thriller that begins with Will, the estranged son of a conman, his unknowable Russian neighbor and a million-dollar stamp collection. A provocative exploration of Will’s fear and integrity, the documentary follows a hunt to find the owner of the collection. When a significant piece of the stamp collection goes missing, the filmmakers are forced to reexamine Will’s capacity for honesty.
