We recently got some very sad news about one of our favorite Nashville filmmakers, Ms. Molly Secours. Molly’s name might be familiar to you if you’ve caught her films “Welcome to My Hood” or “The Faces of Tenncare” here on the channel. Molly was recently diagnosed with uterine cancer and a number of the folks in the Nashville film community have rallied to put together a benefit for her. You’ll find the details about the event and a few other ways you can help out should you not be a Nashville resident below:

The irreplaceable Molly Secours, who has fought for many good causes and helped many people over the years, could now use our support at a most challenging time.
Three months ago, Molly - well known writer, filmmaker, speaker and social activist - was diagnosed with uterine cancer.
Her situation was made doubly difficult by the fact that she had only limited health insurance.
Now, a group of her friends and supporters announce there will be a benefit to raise money for her continued treatment and recovery.
The benefit is called The Molly Show and will be at the Belcourt Theater on October 18 at 7:30pm. Tickets are $20, available at http://www.belcourt.org/ < http://www.belcourt.org/> and at the box office.
“We’ve put together an evening of comedy, music, spoken word and art,” said Dr. Judy Freudenthal, Director of Oasis Center. “Molly has many friends in the entertainment and creative community here. Everyone wants to contribute something.”
The show will feature world-renowned Irish singer Maura O’Connell, comedy country duo Doyle and Debbie, Claude McKnight of Take 6, performance poet Minton Sparks, spoken word artist Diallo, soulful singer Steve Conn plus special surprise guests.
Also, visual artist James Threalkill will paint an original painting during the show which will be auctioned off at the end of the evening.
