Programmed and Presented by Blue Whiskey Independent Film Festival
Featuring a Post-Film Q&A
Having both found themselves alone in Chicago one afternoon, a consultant from New York and a writer from Los Angeles strike up a conversation on a park bench. While their acquaintance begins with innocuous small talk, the two are intrigued by each other, and, having no other plans, end up conversing (and conflicting) through the night and into the next morning. Anchored by Matt Dellapina’s and Kathleen McElfresh’s performances and featuring original music by Mike Kinsella, “Park Life” continues the tradition of the conversation film, celebrating the value of connection between people while also exploring the anxieties and concerns of millennials turning forty.
Music Box Theatre screens films of all genres and from every era of cinema, both new releases and repertory. These films may sometimes contain upsetting, outdated, or offensive material. While we aim to introduce many of our screenings, we do not always provide warnings about potentially triggering content within the films we screen. We encourage our patrons to research the film before they attend using trailers, reviews, or content information found on Common Sense Media, IMDb and DoesTheDogDie.com.
