“EXAMINED LIFE” SNEAK PREVIEW

Last night at the IFC Center, director Astra Taylor unveiled her new documentary EXAMINED LIFE in a special screening for STF pass holders and invited guests at the IFC Center. The film portrays eight contemporary thinkers - including Cornel West, Kwame Anthony Appiah, Martha Nussbaum and Judith Butler - talking about their philosophies as they wander through the urban landscapes of New York, Toronto, Chicago and San Francisco.
