a/perture monthly movie club

• Meeting Up & Talking After: Once you have your ticket, take the hallway to the right off the main entrance (past the men's restrooms/on the way to the lower-level theaters) to the members "ta/ke out" section—there are some chairs and a small area where we usually say hello to one another before heading into the movie (especially if it's your first time!). Someone will be there from ~15 minutes before the film until just before showtime. If you arrive late, just head into the film and you can join us after—we go next door to the Washington Perk coffee shop to discuss.
• Please update your RSVP if you can't make it—this helps with a few things, including how many people we're keeping an eye out for—and sometimes lets people use your ticket if you can't!
• Recommended: purchasing your ticket online ahead of time; this lets a/perture know if more people than expected are coming, AND keeps you from waiting in line if you don't want concessions.
• And remember: You do NOT need to be a serious cinephile to join our group—but we hope you're open to talking about your ideas anyway, and learning from the insights of others!
• Parking Info from a/perture (there's a parking garage right behind the theatre—and a/perture provides a $4 coupon for your stay!).

A man and his son arrive at a rave lost in the mountains of Morocco. They are looking for Marina, their daughter and sister, who disappeared months ago at another rave. Driven by fate, they decide to follow a group of ravers in search of one last party, in hopes Marina will be there. Winner of the Jury Prize at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, nominated for Best Foreign Language Film and Best Score at the Golden Globes, and Spain’s submission for Best International Feature at the 98th Academy Awards.
“Its visual and sonic magnitude notwithstanding, “Sirāt” is a drama of intimate exchanges and transactions, of improbable bonds forged under adversity and small blessings freely and unexpectedly given. Here, in these uninhabitable surroundings, Laxe taps into an oasis of communal feeling that transcends barriers of background and language.” ~ Justin Chang, The New Yorker
