‘Validity’ to be Screened as Part of Lindsay Theater’s Emerging Filmmakers Series

As part of its Emerging Filmmakers series, The Lindsay Theater and Cultural Center is preparing to screen a film that will both thrill and challenge its audience.

In Validity, a doctor working on research regarding treatment practices for hypothermia unearths studies that could cause a breakthrough in the field—but the studies were conducted by a Nazi scientist on victims of the Holocaust. Based on true events, the characters are split on the morality of using the research, considering its provenance.

Running around 70 minutes long, the feature film was written and produced by Katie Vargish and directed by Randy Kovitz, who also plays a role in the film.
