Cineclub announces fall films

The Spanish Department announces the first round of dates for the Cineclub for Fall 2012. One of the main objectives of Cineclub is to provide an opportunity for the Saint Mary’s and Winona communities to enjoy some films from Spain and Latin America that may not typically be shown in local theaters.

In addition to viewing the films, participants will be invited to exchange ideas related to film and other forms of cultural expression. Also, the films may serve as an additional opportunity or resource for students of the Hispanic language, literature, and culture.

All showings will be on Thursdays at 7 p.m. in the World Room of the Hendrickson Center.

The next film, to be shown Thursday, Nov. 8, is “La Nana (The Maid).” This 2009 film from Chile was directed by Sebastián Silva. In this drama/comedy, a maid tries to hold onto her position after having served a family for 23 years. It has English subtitles.
