Film to be shown at SMU for Frozen River Film Festival

As part of the Frozen River Film Festival (FRFF), Saint Mary’s Philosophy and FRFF clubs will be showing a film called “The Age of Stupid.” This film focuses on climate change, war, consumption and other world issues.

The event will be held in Figliulo Recital Hall at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Jan. 13. Following the film, a panel discussion will be held.
