Three Chords And A Lie: Carsey-Wolf Center Virtual Event Preview

A decade after being ostracized for coming out as gay to his Southern Baptist family, rising country star Brandon Stansell is going home. Three Chords and A Lie (2020) follows Brandon as he returns to his hometown of Chattanooga, Tennessee, revisiting painful memories of social exclusion even as he discovers just how much has changed in the years since his departure. Along the way, the film considers larger issues of representation and diversity in the country music industry.

In this CWC Virtual event, director Trent Atkinson and documentary subject Brandon Stansell joined Tyler Morgenstern (Film and Media Studies, UCSB) for a virtual conversation about the making of this fascinating documentary.
