See a Capitol Hill Screening of The Waiting Room

ITVS invites members of Congress and their staff and community members to a special screening and discussion organized in cooperation with the Congressional Arts Caucus and Congresswoman Barbara Lee. The event will take place Monday, June 18 from 6 to 8:30pm at the Cannon House Office Building / Caucus Room. You can RSVP to Monday's event here.

The Waiting Room goes behind the doors of an American public hospital, capturing in vivid detail what it means for millions of Americans to live without health insurance. The documentary will air next season on Independent Lens. Learn more about the film and hear from filmmaker Pete Nicks in the op-doc piece recently featured on The New York Times, after the jump.
