SUMMARY:Slatersville Screening/ Q & A
DESCRIPTION:Samuel Slater's place in US history is as the "Father of the American Industrial Revolution\," though in his native England he is known as "Slater the Traitor" for bringing proprietary technology to the colonies. The Slater family built and operated dozens of textile mills in Rhode Island\, central Massachusetts\, and Connecticut\, dominating the industry for more than a century. It is the story that filmmaker Christian de Rezendes tells in his documentary series Slatersville: America's First Mill Village\, which aired on Rhode Island PBS last year and now streams internationally. The 5-episode first season was honored with two Regional Boston/New England Emmy Nominations for Outstanding Documentary and Outstanding Musical Composition\, which it received\, a Gold Telly Award for Documentary Series and three film festival awards. The Samuel Slater Experience museum will host a "Meet the Filmmaker" and screening event on Sunday\, November 12 from 2:30 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Mr. de Rezendes will introduce the series\, which was 12 years in the making\, and conduct a Q & A following the screening of Episode 1: The Mental Smugglers." He will also review progress on the second half of the series\, now in post-production.
