| Thursday, April 19th - 7:00 P.M. - Riverview Theater Actor/Executive Producer Danny Glover Scheduled to Appear!  Director: Abderrahmane Sissako “I have never seen a film quite like Bamako, Abderrahmane Sissako’s seething, complicated and disarmingly beautiful investigation of Africa’s social, economic and human crises. The agony of Africa has been explored, and exploited, in several high-profile recent documentaries and fictional features, from God Grew Tired of Us, about the “lost boys” of Sudan, to Blood Diamond and The Constant Gardener. Bamako is something different: a work of cool intelligence and profound anger, a long, dense, argument that is also a haunting visual poem.” - A. O. Scott (N.Y. Times) |

April Director: Heddy Honigmann Père-Lachaise in Paris -- one of the world’s most famous and beautiful cemeteries—is the final resting-place of a gifted group of artists from all eras and corners of the world. Some -- such as Edith Piaf, Marcel Proust, Jim Morrison and Frederic Chopin--are worshipped to this day. Others have fallen into oblivion, or are visited occasionally by a single admirer. In Forever, we see the mysterious, calming and consoling beauty of this unique cemetery through the eyes of people of flesh and blood. |

While the Israeli kibbutz has been idealized as a paragon of utopian movements, Sweet Mud tells a darker, more nuanced tale of a community ill-equipped to cope with individuality and deviations from a rigidly defined norm, and of an adolescent boy stretching to compensate for what the collective cannot provide.
