12-13 Passport #2  Oslo, August 31st

Searching for Sugar Man  A favorite from this year's T/F Film Fest. (I know I bought his first album after seeing it.) A mysterious musician from Detroit and songs of rebellion in Apartheid South Africa. Rodriguez is playing at Roots n Blues this year. Friday, Sept 21, 7:30pm at the Peace Park stage. Should be quite an experience.


Monday the 17th
  We have a free screening of Nostalgia for the Light.  Brought to you in part by KMOS.


August 19-20  
Passport #3: Policeman

Robot and Frank  Set in the not-too-distant future, Frank is reformed jewelry thief who's been given a robot butler by his son. Things get outta hand.

September 30  The robot lands. Veiled in mystery, bent on conquest---all will be revealed this night. Thus begins our journey to full digital projection and the start of a powerful fundraiser. Click here for more info.

Cosmopolis  Cronenberg's new film, based on Don DeLillo's novel by the same name. Featuring Robert Pattinson and Juliette Binoche. A strange, strange trip to the barbershop.

We're showing Don Hertzfeldt's animated short It's Such a Beautiful Day. Two years in the making, 23 hand-drawn minutes. The conclusion to the Bill Trilogy. You'll also see Everything Will Be Okay and I Am So Proud of You.

The Master  The new feature from Paul Thomas Anderson (There Will Be Blood). Joaquin Phoenix is back (after I'm Still Here) as a naval veteran finding his way in a post-war world. Philip Seymour Hoffman is a "writer, a doctor, a nuclear physicist, a theoretical philosopher" channeling L. Ron Hubbard. Looks like it's gonna be awesome.

Tuesday the 25th The Columbia Public Library One Read Film. We'll screen local filmmaker Kerri Yost's Neither Here Nor There, a documentary about a family and their experience during the Bosnian War. Free.
