Why you should watch: Canadian director Atom Egoyan’s latest film is a mysterious and stylish exploration of artistic creation, trauma and sexual dynamics in the workplace. Seven Veils stars Amanda Seyfried as a young theatre director who begins to lose her grip on herself as she prepares a new staging of Salome. Shot while Egoyan was directing the same opera (and using footage from the actual performance), Seven Veils is a slippery, complex look at the creative process and the politics of creation. Don’t miss this special screening including a Q&A with the director.
