The 1997 season included only two films, but both packed the house. The award-winning Hide and Seek and A Litany for Survival: The Life and Work of Audre Lorde expanded the language of the documentary, and offered nuanced treatments of subject matter that resonated powerfully with the audience. Graphic designer Tricia Amato took over the task of flyer creation, and the homemade collages of the first few seasons gave way to a more professional look.
