C445 Special Film Screenings

The CMCL-C 445 class, Film, Fascism and Psychoanalysis, is sponsoring a weekend series of special film screenings the weekend before Thanksgiving (Nov 17-18).

Most of these films deal with WWII Italian and German fascism, but SPIRIT OF THE BEEHIVE is a beautiful meditation on the effects of the Spanish Civil War and Franco's subsequent fascist government in Spain. All screenings are free and open to the public. Screenings will take place in Radio-TV 251.
