Tired of the cold? Looking to make some new friends? Join us to view and discuss independent films this winter at Celebration! Cinema at Woodland Mall (3195 28th St SE, Grand Rapids, MI 49512).
This interfaith movie cohort is designed to foster relationships about the shared experience of cinema. Within our moderated discussion immediately following the movie, we hope to cultivate a deeper understanding of our neighbors, our respective faith traditions, and the art of film making.
February 20 @ 6:30: Shape of Water - Rated R
Elisa is a mute, isolated woman who works as a cleaning lady in a hidden, high-security government laboratory in 1962 Baltimore. Her life changes forever when she discovers the lab's classified secret -- a mysterious, scaled creature from South America that lives in a water tank. As Elisa develops a unique bond with her new friend, she soon learns that its fate and very survival lies in the hands of a hostile government agent and a marine biologist.
March 20 @ 6:30: F aces Places - Rated PG
"Agnès Varda and JR have things in common: a passion for and the exploration of images in general, and more precisely, for places and for ways of showing, sharing, and exhibiting them. Agnès chose cinema. JR chose to create open air photography galleries. When Agnès and JR met in 2015, they immediately wanted to work together, to shoot a film in France, far from cities, during a trip in JR's photographic (and magical) truck. Through chance encounters and prepared projects, they reached out to others, listening to them, photographing them, and sometimes putting them on posters. This film also tells the story of Agnès and JR's friendship, which grew stronger throughout the film shoot, between surprises and teasing, and while laughing about their differences."
