Austin Film Society will present the world premiere of The Act of Reading, in which a retired high school English teacher is confronted by a former student who failed her class 15 years prior. He then involves her in a feature-length presentation on Moby-Dick and the science of reading.
Filmmakers and cast will be in attendance, including Austin teacher Vicki Hebert & the descendants of Herman Melville, Peter Whittemore, and Elizabeth Doss.
