A passionate and concise cinematic civics lesson, Good Night, and Good Luck resonates today, perhaps more than ever. When Senator Joseph McCarthy begins his campaign to root out Communists in America, CBS News impresario Edward R. Murrow (David Strathairn) dedicates himself to exposing the atrocities being committed by McCarthy’s Senate investigation. Murrow is supported by a news team that includes longtime friend and producer Fred Friendly (George Clooney) as the CBS team does its best to point out the senator’s lies and excesses, despite pressure from CBS’ corporate sponsors to desist.

Caleb Synan is one of the hottest young comics in the country. (Funny AND good looking!) His unique background as a preacher’s kid from a small southern town gives him the ability to relate to any and every crowd — even though he’s a big old millennial who lives in LA. Want proof? He’s performed on CONAN (twice!), Last Comic Standing (once!), and his first Comedy Central special “30” in 2022 (You can watch it on YouTube!)
The Hidden Fortress stars the inimitable Toshiro Mifune as a general charged with guarding his defeated clan’s princess (a fierce Misa Uehara) as the two smuggle royal treasure across hostile territory. Accompanying them are a pair of bumbling, conniving peasants who may or may not be their friends. This rip-roaring ride is among the director’s most beloved films and was a primary influence on George Lucas’s Star Wars. The Hidden Fortress delivers Kurosawa’s trademark deft blend of wry humor, breathtaking action, and compassionate humanity. [139 min; action, adventure, drama; Japanese with English subtitles]

Transparent, an audible family portrait, introduces a suite of compositions created and recorded with the support of the Jazz Road Creative Residency program in collaboration with the Hundredth Hill under the direction of Monika Herzig. Modern, sophisticated jazz instrumentals evoke the stories and concerns of parents and caregivers of transgender children through intricate melodies and improvisations. Performers for the event are internationally renowned jazz musicians Tom Clark (saxophone), Peter Kienle (guitar), Monika Herzig (piano), Jeremy Allen (bass), Karina Colis (drums) with Cyr Wheel and Aerial Choreography by Zackary Herzig.
Synopsis: In 1974, acclaimed photographer Peter Hujar describes the routines and rituals that define an artist’s life to his friend, the writer Linda Rosenkrantz, capturing a single day’s activities in touching and funny detail: from interactions with cultural icons of the day, including Allen Ginsberg, William S. Burroughs and Susan Sontag, to the texture and energy of downtown New York in its heyday. Ben Whishaw and Rebecca Hall star in the elegant and intimate new piece from filmmaker Ira Sachs (Passages) — a dazzling showcase for the two performers at its centre — that is both a masterful portrait of a time & place and a captivating film about the way art emerges from the intimate details of everyday life.

Melt the ICE Hat is a modern knit pattern recreating the Norwegian resistance hat worn during World War II. In the 1940s, Norwegians secretly made and wore red pointed hats with a tassel as a silent protest of Nazi occupation. The Nazis banned the hats in February 1942, making it illegal to wear, and punishable by law to make or distribute them.
A large segment of Minnesota residents come from Norwegian heritage and therefore it was decided as purveyors of the traditional craft, to resurrect this symbolic act of resistance.
…and what a great way to spend a winter afternoon together!
The Melt the ICE Hat uses approximately 200 yards of red yarn (fingering, DK, or Worsted weight) and is designed for circular needles in US sizes 4–8 mm. Finished size: 22” circumference. Juniper Art Gallery has purchased the pattern for you to use.
The red tassel hat remains a powerful emblem of quiet resistance, rooted in Norway’s wartime defiance. Please bring your red yarn, scissors, tapestry needles and your enthusiasm!

Road trip. Hitchhiking adventure. What could go wrong.
In 1972, filmmaker Ron Osgood set out on a road trip through Northern California that quickly turned into an unexpected hitchhiking adventure. For decades, he shared the story from memory, until he rediscovered an audio cassette he had recorded to preserve its details. That discovery inspired him to retrace and investigate what truly happened. I Do Remember weaves memory and evidence into a timeless question:
Where does the truth lie?
After the screening, Ron will lead a Q/A and discussion on how to research, collect evidence, and fact-check when developing a personal narrative.
I Do Remember will broadcast on PBS stations in 2026.

Prabha, her husband from an arranged marriage living in faraway Germany, is pursued by a courtly doctor while Anu carries on a romance with a Muslim man.

All We Imagine as Light is a soulful study of the transformative power of friendship and sisterhood, in all its complexities and richness.
