'My Kid Could Paint That' Film Screening

Athy Film Club Screening- Members and Non Members Welcome

My Kid Could Paint That is a 2007 documentary film by director Amir Bar-Lev (who also directed 2000's Fighter).

The movie follows the early artistic career of Marla Olmstead, a young girl from Binghamton, NY who gains fame first as a child prodigy painter of abstract art, and then becomes the subject of controversy concerning whether she truly completed the paintings herself or did so with her parents' assistance and/or direction.

The film was bought by Sony Pictures Classics in 2007 after premiering at the Sundance Film Festival.
