Provincetown Film Art Series: A Thousand and One
The Provincetown Film Art Series, now in its 18th year, is sponsored by the Provincetown Film Society (PFS) and Provincetown Art Association and Museum (PAAM) and curated and hosted by film scholar Howard Karren. Films in the series, both recent and vintage, are chosen around central themes, but the focus is on films about artists and creativity, and films that are themselves works of art.

A Thousand and One (2023)
Written and directed by A.V. Rockwell. With Teyana Taylor, Will Catlett, and Josiah Cross. 1 hour, 57 minutes.
A young mother in Brooklyn kidnaps the young son who she says was taken from her and they spend a life of undercover domestic harmony until the boy grows up and real-world truths shatter their hopeful narrative. Teyana Taylor delivers a knockout performance as the driven single mom, and this Sundance Grand Jury Prize winner weaves a rich storytelling experience.
