Ignite: IN BETWEEN @ ALMA Tacoma
Mar 5 @ 1:00 pm

At DCFF, we aim to engage our community and ignite conversations that extend beyond the world of film. This year, in partnership with SHARE, Pongo Poetry Project, and Underground Writing, DCFF is honored a host to screening of the short film IN BETWEEN along with a conversation by community members involved in programs that support King and Pierce counties’ incarcerated and other underserved communities.

In addition to our in-person event, IN BETWEEN will be available to stream for free on our virtual cinema platform here. Written by a student in the Screenwriting Program at the Washington Corrections Center for Women, IN BETWEEN (directed by Lindy Boustedt) is based on a true story. Through the lens of a what-if.

It’s the late-1980s and Lisa, a biracial teenager having just moved to Seattle from London, is forced into a new world when she is segregated to a different school from her white sister. But when she meets a welcoming student at orientation, everything changes.
