“What is Purl + Seam?”, I hear you ask. It’s a relaxed screening of a great film where you’re encouraged to bring your knitting/crochet/stitching etc. Come in a group or meet you people. And a hot drink and biscuit are included with your ticket. Pure joy. Purl + Seam.
Trapped housewife Evelyn encounters an excentric older woman who recounts the exploits of her free-spirited sister-in-law Idgie, owner of a small Alabama café in the 1920s. It’s a film about the empowering nature of female friendship in a world dominated by the power of men that is guaranteed to pull on the heartstrings.
