CLOSE UP (1990) Abbas Kiarostami
Still from Close Up (1990)
Come join us this Sunday March 1st to see "Close Up" (1990) by filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami, often considered among the best examples of the new wave of Iranian cinema.
Weaving fiction and documentary, Close Up follows the real trial of a man accused of impersonating a filmmaker and the dramatic reconstruction of the charges. Radically innovative, it experiments with, interrogates and blurs the boundaries between the artistic and the legal.

ATLANTICS (2016) by Mati Diop
Screening of the stunning feature filmmaking debut of French-Senegalese director Mati Diop, which was awarded the 2019 Cannes Grand-Prix. Set in Dakar, Atlantics is a haunting tale of spiritual possession, migration, love and capitalist exploitation.
