About
Join us at Northwest Film Forum for another in an ongoing series of conversation about how to make movies in the apocalypse (AKA our current cinema and cultural landscape). This month, local filmmaker Megan Griffiths sits down with Todd Rohal, a director of film and television whose most recent project, FUCK MY SON!, based on the comic by Johnny Ryan, premiered at Toronto International Film Festival and went on to screen at Fantastic Fest, Beyond Fest, Sitges Film Festival, and more, before embarking on a successful multi-city self-produced theatrical tour.
Want to see FUCK MY SON! before this talk? Its screening courtesy of The Grand Illusion Cinema at SIFF Film Center on December 5th and 6th!
Todd and Megan also attended film school together in the 90s and have been friends ever since, working together on Todds films THE GUATEMALAN HANDSHAKE, CATECHISM CATACLYSM, and RAT PACK RAT. The two will chat with each other about the evolution of the film industry, the controversies around FUCK MY SON!, Todds motivations for putting his heart and soul into this subject matter, how he has gone about mounting his expectation-defying, word-of-mouth-driven distribution campaign, and how other filmmakers might be able to harness these techniques to navigate this challenging era.

Accessibility
Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum's ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible. We have a limited number of assistive listening devices available for programs hosted in our larger theater, Cinema 1. These devices are maintained by the Technical Director, and can be requested at the ticketing and concessions counter.
The Forum does NOT have assistive devices for the visually impaired, and is not (yet) a scent-free venue. Our commitment to increasing access for our audiences is ongoing, and we welcome all public input on the subject!
If you have additional specific questions about accessibility at our venue, please contact our Patron Services Manager at rajah@nwfilmforum.org
