This year, the theme of the series is "Social Inequities," reflecting the theme of the UMD First Year Book. Please join us on November 1 at 3:30pm in the International Film Lounge (0107 St. Mary's Hall) for a screening of the film "Captain Abu Raed." Everyone is welcome!
When an old airport janitor finds a captain's hat in the trash, he gets pulled into the lives of children in his poor neighborhood. He weaves imaginary stories of his world adventures to offer hope in the face of their harsh reality.
