More information at http://film360365.com/school


The DOCUMENTARY winner is...

Waiting for "Superman" - playing at 9:15 pm at the Little Theatre (Monday, May 10).

Filmmaker Davis Guggenheim reminds us that education "statistics" have names: Anthony, Francisco, Bianca, Daisy, and Emily, whose stories make up the engrossing foundation of WAITING FOR SUPERMAN. As he follows a handful of promising kids through a system that inhibits, rather than encourages, academic growth, Guggenheim undertakes an exhaustive review of public education, surveying "drop-out factories" and "academic sinkholes," methodically dissecting the system and its seemingly intractable problems.


The NARRATIVE winner is....

WELCOME -- will screen at 7pm at The Little tonight (Monday, May 10).

Thanks to everyone who voted! (The documentary winner will be announced this evening, after we've tablulated the votes for "Waiting For Superman.")

Welcome Still
WELCOME

Philippe Lioret, France 2009, 110 min., French with subtitles

A powerful drama with enormous contemporary relevance, Welcome follows Simon (the ruggedly handsome Vincent Lindon), a middle-aged swim instructor and former Olympic gold medalist living in Calais who reluctantly befriends Bilal (Firat Ayverdi), a Kurdish refugee and illegal alien. Hoping to swim the English Channel and be reunited with his true love in London, Bilal takes lessons from Simon, who is himself trying to patch up his own troubled marriage while facing increasing pressure from immigration authorities for sheltering Bilal. Moving and filled with engaging performances, director Lioret, who formerly served as a sound technician for Robert Altman, focuses on the frustrating and often humiliating experiences of immigrants, who travel enormous distances hoping to find work in wealthier countries, only to experience setbacks at the very end of their backbreaking voyages.
