|  | | An Education | An Education is the story of a teenage girl's coming-of-age set in 1961 London, a city caught between the drab, post-war 1950s and the glamorous, more liberated decade to come. Jenny (Carey Mulligan, an exciting newcomer already creating Oscar buzz) stands on the brink of becoming a woman: a brilliantly witty and attractive 16-year-old whose suburban life is about to be blown apart by the utterly unsuitable 30-something David (Peter Sarsgaard). Urbane and witty, David manages to charm her conservative parents, Jack (Alfred Molina) and Marjorie (Cara Seymour). David introduces Jenny to a glittering new world of classical concerts and late-night suppers with his attractive friend and business partner, Danny (Dominic Cooper), and Danny's girlfriend, the beautiful but vacuous Helen (Rosamund Pike). Just as Jenny's family's long-held dream of getting their brilliant daughter into Oxford seems within reach, Jenny is tempted by another kind of life. Written by Nick Hornby (About a Boy, High Fidelity) and directed by Lone Scherfig. (PG13, 100 mins)

|  | | The Messenger | Ben Foster stars as a U.S. Army officer who has just returned home from a tour in Iraq and is assigned to the Army's Casualty Notification service. Partnered with a fellow officer (Woody Harrelson) to bear the bad news to the loved ones of fallen soldiers, he faces the challenge of completing his mission while seeking to find comfort and healing. When he is drawn to a woman (Samantha Morton) to whom he has just delivered the news of her husband's death, his emotional detachment begins to dissolve. The film reveals a surprisingly humorous, moving, and very human portrait of grief, friendship, and survival, and brings us into the inner lives of these steely heroes to reveal their fragility with compassion and dignity. (R, 112 mins)

|  | | The Yes Men Fix the World (w/ speakers & discussio | Yes Men founders Andy Bichlbaum and Michael Bonanno are culture jamming pranksters who pass themselves off as corporate experts and government officials in order to infiltrate business conferences and stage fake press conferences-as exemplified by their most recent charade of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce to announce a reversal of the Chamber's policy of global warming denial. The film follows these intrepid souls as they enter the sacred halls of unapologetic free market profiteers, and expose their toxic and phony ideology for everyone to see. And it's also really fun to see them make fools out of the ruling elite at Dow Chemical, Halliburton, and the NY Times. (87 mins)
Speakers: We'll hear from local organizers and culture jammers who create media events using street theater and political actions. Dan Shannon of PETA will speak about their daring and controversial campaigns that garner national media coverage.

|  | | Paris | Cédric Klapisch, the beloved director of L'Auberge Espagnole, gathers together some of the biggest actors in French cinema for a valentine to the city of lights. The all-star cast includes Oscar-winner Juliette Binoche, Romain Duris, Melanie Laurent, Fabrice Luchini, Francois Cluzet and Karin Viard. While waiting for a heart transplant that could save his life, Pierre (Duris) grows close again with his sister (Binoche) and her lively children. This rediscovery of his family and observation of the teeming streets outside his window give Pierre a new, hopeful sense of how he might spend the time still left to him. A cinematic love letter to the city that seems to hide a story behind every shop window, small alley, street market, or grand apartment building. This engaging film explores the life and love possible only in Paris. In French with subtitles (R, 129 mins)

|  | | Amreeka | Amreeka chronicles the adventures of Muna (Nisreen Faour), a single mother who leaves the Palestinian West Bank with Fadi (Melkar Muallem), her teenage son, dreaming of an exciting future in the promised land of small-town Illinois. In America, as her son navigates high school hallways the way he used to move through military checkpoints, the indomitable Muna scrambles together a new life cooking up falafel burgers as well as hamburgers at the local White Castle. Told with heartfelt humor by writer/director Cherien Dabis in her feature film debut, Amreeka is a universal journey into the lives of a family of immigrants and first-generation teenagers caught between their Arab heritage and the brave new world of post 9/11 American fear and racism. With Hiam Abbass (The Visitor, Lemon Tree). (PG13, 96 mins)

|  | | For the Next 7 Generations | Within matriarchal traditional cultures throughout the world, ancient wisdom is transmitted by the elder women. This is the story of The International Council of Thirteen Indigenous Grandmothers, an alliance formed at an historic gathering. Four years in-the-making and shot on location in the Amazon rainforest, the mountains of Mexico, North America, and at a private meeting with the Dalai Lama in India, this beautiful film by Carole Hart follows what happens when these wise women unite. Facing a world in crisis, they share with us their visions of healing and a call for urgent change, before it's too late. (85 mins)
"We are deeply concerned with the unprecedented destruction of our Mother Earth and the destruction of indigenous ways of life. We believe the teachings of our ancestors will light the way through an uncertain future." -- Council of Indigenous Grandmothers

|  | | William Kunstler: Disturbing the Universe | William Kunstler was one of the most famous and controversial lawyers of the 20th century. In the 1960s and '70s, Kunstler fought for civil rights with Martin Luther King Jr. and represented the famed "Chicago 8" activists who protested the Vietnam War. When the inmates took over Attica prison, or when the American Indian Movement stood up to the federal government at Wounded Knee, they asked Kunstler to be their lawyer. To his daughters, filmmakers Emily Kunstler and Sarah Kunstler, it seemed that he was at the center of everything important that had ever happened. But when they were growing up, Kunstler represented some of the most reviled members of society, including rapists, assassins and accused terrorists. This powerful film not only recounts the historic causes that Kunstler fought for, it also confronts a man that even his own daughters did not always understand, a man who believed that, however unpopular, justice should serve all. (90 mins)
