African American Film Fest Continues

Following their first showing (Academy Award best picture winner Moonlight), the University of Toledo African American Film Festival continues with Get Out and Pariah. Jordan Peele’s Get Out is a horror film that might best be described as The Stepford Wives meets Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner, an original concept that earned it four Oscars. In contrast, Pariah is an Indie film by Dee Rees about Alike, a Brooklyn teenager who wants to find love, but fears being open with her family about her sexuality. Don’t miss the free showings of these celebrated films.

Get Out showing: 7:30pm. Thursday, February 14. CPA Center Theatre.
Pariah showing: 7:30pm. Thursday, February 21. Room 1039.
