Buried alive

In 79 AD, the Roman island colony of Pompeii was buried alive in the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. The volcanic ash literally froze the citizens of Pompeii in place, and today the site is an international, archeological treasure trove. Rave Cinemas will screen, for one night only, the film Pompeii Live from the British Museum, an inside look at the museum's exhibition Life and Death in Pompeii and Herculaneum. The film—the first produced by a museum for a major exhibition—screens for one night only, and features behind-the-scenes footage and insights from international experts on Roman history.

Wednesday, September 25. 7:30pm. Fallen Timbers 14, 2300 Village Dr W., Maumee, 419-878-3898 and Franklin Park 16, 5001 Monroe St., Toledo, 419-472-2324. For more info and selected scenes, visit fathomevents.com
