Brent Bokovoy, the local filmmaker behind Ronald's Little Factory.

  • Aug. 3: Screening of Ronald's Little Factory, 7:15 p.m. at Brewvies Cinema Pub, 677 S. 200 W., SLC. The venue is 21+. "The night before he leaves on his Mormon Mission, Ronald handcuffs himself to his bedpost to keep himself from 'revving' up his 'little factory.' When he accidentally gets stuck to his bed, his overbearing mother must call on all the 'peculiar' members of their church to help free Ronald. A Post-Mormon, Dark Comedy Film." Mingle with the filmmaker as early as 6:15 p.m., and stay after for a post-film Q&A with Bokovoy and sex therapist Natasha Helfer, a former member of the LDS Church.
