Originally from Maine, Berry ventured south to launch his filmmaking career in Nashville, TN by directing The Little Stage in 2016 and Nashedonia in 2017. Berry graduated in 2018 from Brown University with honors in both modern culture and media and literary arts. His thesis film, Off the Record, in 2018 received the Kenneth Baker '69 Memorial Honors Prize.

The group at 8 p.m. will screen one of Berry's short films, based on an original poem.
