The Battle of Pussy Willow Creek, A Mockumentary/Satire

A comedy film screening and discussion and Q&A with the director. Ken Burns meets Spinal Tap in a subversive tour de force relaying the outrageous life stories of four supposedly forgotten Civil War heroes: an opium-addicted gay colonel, an aging Chinese launderer, a nerdy escaped slave, and a one-armed teenage prostitute. A story of how these oddball outsiders saved the Union from a nefarious foreign plot, only to have their victory redacted from the history books.
