Program Description:Our Bodies & Other Shames (2026). Directed by Jenny Lester, 1 hr. 27 min., drama, NR
When a trio of estranged childhood friends receive devastating news, they reunite for one night in the Brooklyn of their youth, where they are haunted by their younger selves who demand that the past come achingly into the present.

Director Jenny Lester sprinkles fairytale wonder into adult reality, skillfully weaving three different timelines into one cohesive narrative that gives the audience hope.” – Megan McLachlan, The Contending
