Lit Youngstown is holding its 6th annual Fall Literary Festival in Youngstown, Ohio from October 20-22, 2022. The theme this year is “The Places That Make Us” and celebrates literal as well as imagined places in literary and filmic arts. As part of the festival, there will be three filmmakers who will screen their most recent films and engage in discussions with the audiences. The Grace Ruth Memorial Endowment has generously sponsored three filmmakers to be able to share their work:
- Amanda Page and her documentary film Peerless City, about Portsmouth Ohio
- Katerina Stoykova’s Proud Citizen, a fictional film about a Bulgarian playwright visiting America
- Christine Howey’s Exact Change, a documentary version of her one-woman show
