Set on the outskirts of Baltimore, Matt Porterfield’s Putty Hill is a collective coming-of-age tale, made with young non-actors, that blends fiction with documentary. He discusses his film with Thomas Beard, co-curator of the 2012 Biennial’s film and video program.
Free with Museum admission. Admittance is on a first-come, first-seated basis until capacity is reached. Late admittance is strongly discouraged, so please arrive early.
