Join Joel and Bethany to talk about Debra Granik's beautiful determination to tell stories about people we don't usually hear stories about. As a warning, this is a sad set of movies, but also a really beautiful and tender set. What do the stories about the outcasts of society say about community care and how well our social net actually works?

Join Joel and Bethany as we dive into two very messy and very human stories. What happens when you make terrible mistakes but still love each other? How do you make friends in college and learn to be a grown up? We look at the two deeply human movies Your Sister’s Sister and Sh*thouse and muse on our own college experience a bit.
