Artist Katy Grannan Premieres Film, “The Nine” at Mill Valley Film Festival October 11th

After five years of production, Katy Grannan will premiere her film “The Nine” at the Mill Valley Film Festival on October 11^th at 9:00 pm at the Cinearts Sequioa theater in Mill Valley, 25 Throckmorton Avenue, and on October 12^th at 2:30 pm Lark Theater in Larkspur on 549 Magnolia Avenue.

 

“The Nine” is an intimate insight into the forgotten community living on Modesto’s South Ninth Street. The film focuses on Kiki, a drifter, whose only means of escape is through her imagination and whose delicate sense of

self-worth hinges on the making of the film. Kiki’s story is one of courageous vulnerability, powerful observations of a lost childhood, and the fundamental need for connection. Kiki says, “I heard people say out here on the street we’re free. I think the street is more like prison.”
