Community Film Series: "Boy" Screening

The Community Film Series returns to The Strand this year for seven weeks in March and April. All films show at 9:30 on Tuesday nights and 7:30 on Wednesday nights. General admission is $7, $5 for seniors. Before he directed last year’s Thor, Waititi made this gem of a film about two boys being raised by their grandmother in an isolated Maori village and fantasizing about Michael Jackson and their absent father. When their father does appear, he turns out to be not a superhero but a comically incompetent petty criminal, played by Waititi. English and Maori. (New Zealand, Waititi, 2013, 1 hr., 27 mins).
