Stage and screen star Michael Imperioli will host an exclusive screening of his directorial film debut The Hungry Ghosts, at 7:30pm on Tuesday, September 15 as a benefit for the Golden Bridge Association of Tibet, an organization to assist Tibetan refugees and elderly Buddhist monks.

In the film, which stars Steven Schirripa, Aunjaunue Ellis, Nick Sandow, and Sharon Angela, the characters float like ghosts through life, looking for happiness, hoping to fulfill a desire. Late-night radio host Frank gambles and uses drugs at the expense of his teenage son, while philosophical seeker Gus, fresh out of a detox-program, searches for his ex-lover Nadia.
