Event Details

“Goya’s Ghosts” is a sweeping historical epic told through the eyes of celebrated Spanish painter Francisco Goya. Set against the backdrop of political turmoil at the end of the Spanish Inquisition and start of the invasion of Spain by Napoleon’s army, the film captures the essence of beauty of Goya’s work which is best known for both the colorful depictions of the royal court and its people, and his grim depictions of the brutality of war and life in 18th century Spain.

Event Details

In China, a new industry has emerged devoted to helping couples stay married in the face of infidelity. Wang Zhenxi is part of this growing profession, a “mistress dispeller” who is hired to maintain the bonds of marriage — and break up affairs — by any means necessary.

Offering strikingly intimate access to private dramas usually hidden behind closed doors, Elizabeth Lo’s “Mistress Dispeller” (2024, 94 min) follows a real, unfolding case of infidelity as Teacher Wang attempts to bring a couple back from the edge of crisis. Their story shifts our sympathies between husband, wife and mistress to explore the ways emotion, pragmatism and cultural norms collide to shape romantic relationships in contemporary China.

After living in Philadelphia, United States, for decades (where she helped raise her grandchildren and sent money back home) Mama Icha returns to her native town of Mompox, Bolívar, Colombia, hoping to spend her final days in the dream house she built.
