In the ’80s, while a student at Indiana University, CJ and her all-woman punk band climbed through the windows of a law school classroom, stood on desks, and sang a tune she wrote called “I Think I’m Gonna Die (and I Know I’m Gonna Flunk).” Today, CJ is still writing songs, but now they might chronicle a drunken dinner party, the tear-down of grandpa’s house, or the joy and sadness of our headfirst dive through life.

Post-film video Q&A with artists Michael Townsend and Leah Smith!
Synopsis: In 2003, eight young Rhode Islanders created a secret apartment in a hidden space inside the Providence Place Mall and lived in it for four years, filming everything along the way. They snuck in furniture, tapped into the mall’s electricity, and even secretly constructed a brick wall with a locking door, smuggling in over 2 tons of cinderblock. Far more than just a wild prank, the secret apartment became a deeply meaningful place for all its inhabitants – a personal expression of defiance against local gentrification, a boundary-pushing work of public/private art, and finally, a 750 square foot space that sticks it to the man!
