Film Screening & Panel Discussion: Catching Sight of Thelma and Louise

Seattle NOW is honored to present a special screening of Catching Sight of Thelma and Louise, a powerful documentary that revisits the groundbreaking 1991 film to explore its influence on female empowerment, resistance, and social justice.

In partnership with filmmaker Jennifer Townsend, this event is an effort to drive awareness and spark critical conversations during Sexual Assault Awareness Month. By revisiting the themes of resilience and solidarity depicted in Thelma and Louise, we aim to shed light on the realities of sexual assault, its impact on survivors, and the ongoing fight for change. After the screening, filmmaker Jennifer Townsend will be joined by a panel of speakers (panelists to be announced soon) for a compelling discussion that dives deeper into these critical topics and their relevance today.

Proceeds from this event will support Seattle NOW’s mission to fight sexual violence, advocate for gender equality and advance social justice initiatives in our community. Let’s come together to honor this month of awareness, amplify voices, and inspire action.
