Thinking Through the Drink
Last year, four classes of aspiring filmmakers were challenged to take new and fresh perspectives when creating short films about drunk driving. The challenge was part of a pilot project,
Stay on the SENE... live well, drive safe and be creative! Thinking Through the Drink is the behind-the-scenes documentary about the project. WSBE Rhode Island PBS premieres the documentary on
Saturday, January 15 at 7 P.M., with re-broadcast on

The grant-funded pilot project was sponsored by the Rhode Island Department of Transportation Office on Highway Safety, the University of Rhode Island Transportation Center, SENE (Southeast New England) Film, Music and Arts, in collaboration with the Rhode Island Film Collaborative.

Thinking Through the Drink was produced by award-winning Rhode Island filmmaker Christian de Rezendes of
