"Talent Has Hunger": Saturday, February 1st / 7pm
a film about music, passion and the struggle for perfection
TALENT HAS HUNGER is a documentary about the power of mastery of an instrument, and the gift of performing great music. Filmed over 7 years in Boston, the film focuses on the challenges of teaching gifted young people the intricacies of playing the cello. Its universal themes about talent and dedication will resonate with all. Equally compelling is the portrait of world-famous master cellist/teacher, Paul Katz, of the New England Conservatory, who inspires his young students to achieve their potential. He will be on hand to introduce the film, and to take questions from the audience
Finally, Leo Eguchi, a JP-based teacher and cellist with the Pops, Boston Ballet and Sheffield Chamber Players, will lead a concert of young cellists-in-training as you enter the building. They will demonstrate the burgeoning talent of our local classical musicians, and serve as a real-time demonstration of the film's central themes.
Centre for Faith, Art and Justice, in the First baptist church, 633 Centre Street, Jamaica Plain

JP Movie Night History
JPMN was founded by two neighbors - Shailah and Jason - who regretted that JP lacked a place for folks to gather to watch movies in the neighborhood. So, in late 2018, they started presenting films to the public, primarily movies they found that were made and owned by the filmmakers themselves. They screened movies at Doyles till it closed.
JP Movie Night Details
JPMN screens films on the first Saturday of every month, starting at 7pm and ending the screening by approx. 8:30. The audience is encouraged to stay for conversation after the movie.
