IndieWire’s celebrated “Screen Talk” podcast will be live in New York City on Monday, April 13, timed to Film at Lincoln Center and MoMA’s New Directors/New Films festival. Co-hosts Anne Thompson and Ryan Lattanzio will be joined by acclaimed screenwriter, playwright, producer, and actor Jeremy O. Harris for a lively conversation about the state of the industry and the new film “Erupcja.”

Harris produced, co-wrote, and appears in the film, directed and written by Pete Ohs, which plays New Directors/New Films this month before opening from 1-2 Special theatrically in select cities starting Friday, April 17.

The “Screen Talk” live conversation will take place on April 13 at 4:00 p.m. at the Amphitheater at the Elinor Bunin Munroe (EBM) Film Center at Lincoln Center in Manhattan. Tickets are first-come, first-served beginning at 3:00 p.m. at the EBM box office. Full details are on Film at Lincoln Center’s website here.

New Directors/New Films launches on Wednesday, April 8, with the opening-night screening of “Leviticus,” and runs through April 19, screening 24 features and 10 shorts. The festival, now in its 55th year, champions rising, new, and distinctive cinematic voices from around the world.

In “Erupcja,” a romantic vacation goes awry after a volcanic eruption leaves Bethany (Charli xcx) and her soon-to-be fiancé, Rob (Will Madden), stranded in Warsaw, Poland. Bethany takes the explosive event as a sign to ditch her baggage, reunite with childhood friend Nel (Lena Góra), and traipse across lofts, clubs, and back alleys, all the while becoming entangled in an emotional web that challenges her sense of self.

Harris is a Tony-nominated playwright, screenwriter, and actor known for “Slave Play” (NYTW, Broadway, West End), “Daddy” (New Group/Vineyard, Japan’s Globe, Almeida), Black Exhibition (Bushwick Starr), and A24’s “Zola.” He is the inaugural creative director of the Williamstown Theatre Festival’s Creative Collective, where his play “Spirit of the People” had its world premiere.
