League of Women Voters to host free film screening of 'No Time to Fail'

"No Time to Fail" follows Rhode Island election officials as they administer the 2020 election amid a global pandemic.

The 2022 film is highly relevant given current events and a rapidly approaching primary election season.

The 90-minute film will be shown at 7 p.m. Monday, Sept. 25, at the Batavia Public Library, 10 S. Batavia Ave. (Route 31).

Learn about the film by Sara Archambault and Margo Guernsey at www.notimetofailfilm.com.

The film gives voice to the experiences of this largely invisible yet completely indispensable workforce at this critical time in our country's relationship with election management.

The film was an official selection at the Boston GlobeDocs Film Festival, New Hampshire Film Festival, and Salem Film Festival.
