INVITE: Bliss – Free Online Q&A Screening

We hope you’re healthy and sheltering in place to flatten the curve!

***We still have a few seats left & would love to have you join us!***

Backstory Magazine and The Q&A with Jeff Goldsmith Podcast cordially invite your household to a free advance online screening of Amazon Studios new sci-fi film Bliss + Q&A with writer/director Mike Cahill on Tuesday Feb. 2nd, 2021 at 7:30pm!

Note: You can RSVP for a 7:30 PST or 7:30 EST start time.

Synopsis:

Bliss is a mind-bending love story following Greg (Owen Wilson) who, after recently being divorced and then fired, meets the mysterious Isabel (Salma Hayek), a woman living on the streets and convinced that the polluted, broken world around them is just a computer simulation.

Doubtful at first, Greg eventually discovers there may be some truth to Isabel’s wild conspiracy.
