The Waiting Room Film Screening

This semester, for our Visiting Filmmakers' Series, the Film & Media Studies program is bringing the acclaimed documentary The Waiting Room to George Mason University. The screening is at the Johnson Center Cinema on November 7, 2012 at 6pm, and will be flowed by a Q&A with director Peter Nicks and Washington Post film critic Ann Hornaday.

The event is free and open to the public.

The documentary THE WAITING ROOM is a character-driven documentary film that goes behind the doors of an American public hospital struggling to care for a community of largely uninsured patients. 

THE WAITING ROOM won the Special Jury Mention at 2012's AFI/Discovery Channel Silverdocs Documentary Festival. It opens at Washington DC's E Street Cinema on 30 November 2012.
