The Northwest Film Center
brings one the year’s most in-
cisive, tender portraits of life in
America with the screening of
“Quest,” a documentary that fol-
lows a black family living in Phil-
adelphia during the Obama pres-
idency.
The debut documentary, by
film director Jonathon Olshefs-
ki, follows Christopher “Quest”
Rainey, a pillar of the local hip-
hop community who uses his
basement studio to give young
rappers a shot, while his wife
Christine’a (“Ma Quest”) works
at a local health care facility. Their
studio space acts as a refuge from
the harsh streets, but those same
streets send the family into crisis
at points, as random violence af-
fects their lives.
In the end, however, the
Raineys’ strong familial bonds
rise above, and Quest—shot over
a 10-year period—gracefully lets
us in on a look at one family’s
deeply felt experience of this his-
toric period in American life.
‘Quest” shows at 7 p.m. on Fri-
day, March 10, Saturday, March
10 and Sunday, March 10 at Whit-
sell Auditorium at the Portland
Art Museum, downtown. Tickets
are $9 general, $8 for students and
seniors and $6 for children.
Playhouse Reopens with ‘Scarlet’
Condemned by her com-
munity, Hester fights to build
a life for her and her daughter
in puritan Boston in ‘Scarlet,”

Funny, sweet, and heroic;
this new musical based on
Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “The
Scarlet Letter” stars Rebecca
Teran, Isaac Lamb, Susannah
Mars, Darius Pierce, Dana
Green and many other Port-
land favorites.
Opening night is Saturday,
March 9 with shows to con-
tinue through March 25. Port-
land Playhouse is located in a
former historic church at 602 Rebecca Teran stars in “Scarlet,” a new play taking a page from an
N.E. Prescott St. For tickets, American classic showing this month at the newly restored Portland
Playhouse in northeast Portland.
