STL Weekly Film Meetup [Buy Tickets](https://secure.qgiv.com/for/womensfilmfestival/event/gotrwomensfilmfestival2026/) Each year, thanks to our lovely [Patreon](https://www.patreon.com/c/STLFilmClub) members and the success of our other events, STL Film Club is able to pick a few causes to support. For the second year in a row, we've chosen to sponsor the "Women's Film Festival" presented by the wonderful people at Girls on the Run! Tickets are $45 dollars and can be purchased using the link above. Not only does the festival spotlight interesting films made by women, all proceeds benefit a tremendous organization in GOTR! **Your Ticket Includes:** \- Exclusive screening at Alamo Drafthouse at City Foundry on Thursday\, October 8th at 6:00 PM \- Access to the VIP reception featuring dessert\, wine\, and shopping with local female\-owned vendors\. **Film Slate:** ***"147"*** ***Farsighted Creative*** "147" is an award-winning short documentary film that follows Steph Hauser as she takes on a grueling 147-mile run over 48 hours, with each mile symbolizing a day her son Zev battled for life in the NICU after being born at just 23 weeks gestation. As their stories entwine, Steph’s run and Zev’s fight for survival push the Hauser family’s hope to the limits. \-\-\- ***"All Choked Up"*** ***Allison Volk*** A woman must decide whether to save her husband when he starts choking on a sandwich during lunch. \-\-\- ***"When I Grow Up"*** ***Sharon Arteaga*** Letty dreams of not one, but several taco trucks, so she can stop working at the restaurant and better provide for herself and daughter. But Michaela hates helping mom sell tacos every morning before school. Driving past a wasteland of refineries in Corpus Christi, Texas, they both find hurt and hope during one of their morning routines. \-\-\- ***"Single"*** ***Ashley Eakin*** "Single" is a relatable, anti-romantic comedy that delivers an entertaining and insightful examination of human connection that also challenges preconceived notions of life with a disability. \-\-\- ***"Livestreams with GrandmaPuzzles"*** ***Emily Sheskin*** Puzzling has been a big part of Adele’s life. It’s connected her with family and been an outlet during hard times. Now in her golden years and struggling with loneliness, she finds herself streaming jigsaw puzzles via Twitch. These strangers soon become friends, and she finds herself at the center of a growing community. \-\-\- ***"Ballet After Dark"*** ***B Monet*** "Ballet After Dark" tells the story of a young woman who found the strength to survive after an attack. She created an organization that is helping sexual abuse and domestic violent survivors find healing after trauma through dance therapy. This won't be the normal set up for our events, but we wanted to help spread the word. I hope you all consider buying a ticket and supporting this incredible cause!
