SECRET MALL APARTMENT

Having lost their studio loft spaces to corporate developers of the Providence Place Mall, a group of Rhode Island artists plots revenge by inhabiting a secret, unused space inside the mall’s design. Over the next four years, the artists created a combined living space, studio, art installation, and communal center—and recorded their work on video. Jeremy Workman’s latest joint is a madcap rollercoaster of wonder and one of 2025’s most memorable rides. Winner, Grand Jury Prize: Documentary, Independent Film Festival Boston

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with filmmaker Jeremy Workman.

All in-person screening venues provide sound amplification headphones upon request with venue management. IFC Center can also provide a T-Coil loop for compatible devices.
