SPECIAL SCREENING 10am/Rm3

“The Breast Cancer Diaries”
For ten years, Ann Murray Paige covered the news—but for the biggest story of her life she turned the camera on herself. When Murray Paige, a former local news reporter and anchor, is diagnosed with breast cancer at the age of 38, she sets up a diary camera in her bedroom. Ann’s video diaries —raw andtrue—offer an intimate chronicle of a young mother’s nine month journey with breast cancer, punctuated with humor, poignancy and romance. Along the way Ann—with characteristic wit—challenges everything fromdrive-through mastectomies to how American society all too often defines a woman by her breasts.

The Breast Cancer Diaries is a chronicle of illness met with attitude, symbolized by the “Cancer Sucks” button that Ann pins on her shirt. Throughout it all there is humor: from a hospital flashing scene, to a young son’s attempt to heal his mother with a whoopee cushion. With video diaries and verite
footage woven together, The Diaries is a real-time portrayal of the unique issues and juggling act that face the 1-in-7 women in the world who are diagnosed with breast cancer. Director Linda Pattillo, herself an award winning former network news correspondent (ABC NEWS and CNN), spent 15 years covering wars across the globe. } Ann Murray Paige will be present at the screening to answer questions and to speak with women about this important subject.
