It's been over a decade since Hole's original lineup has appeared together at a public event -- let alone in the same room. But for one night at MoMA's New Directors/New Films Festival, Courtney Love, Eric Erlandson, Patty Schemel, and Melissa Auf der Maur will come together in honor of Schemel's documentary, Hit So Hard. Unfortunately, the quartet isn't set to perform, only to do a Q&A alongside filmmaker P. David Ebersole. Needless to say, the attending crowd is probably in for a real treat, especially after Courtney Love's "Hole" reunion tour sans original members.

Comprised of never before seen footage, home movies, and candid interviews, Hit So Hard, captures Hole's rollercoaster rise to the top in the '90s, followed by the dramatic breakdown.
View the trailer of Hit So Hard and a clip after the jump.
