We have added encores of Howl’s Moving Castle, the acclaimed Studio Ghibli masterpiece, screening in its star-studded dubbed version!

The film follows Sophie (voiced by Emily Mortimer), a young woman who is mysteriously transformed into an elderly woman by a wicked witch’s curse. Seeking refuge, Sophie stumbles upon the magical, ever-moving castle of Howl (voiced by Christian Bale), a reclusive wizard with a troubled past. As Sophie and Howl grow closer, they must confront not only the forces of war that threaten their world but also the personal battles that keep them from fully embracing their own potential.

This film will be presented dubbed in the English language. 

The Encampments is a groundbreaking documentary that chronicles the Columbia University Gaza Solidarity Encampment and the international wave of student activism it ignited. Executive Produced by Grammy Award-winning artist Macklemore, the film is directed by Kei Pritsker, a journalist and producer at Break Through News, and award-winning filmmaker Michael T. Workman (Meantime).

Through exclusive footage and intimate interviews, The Encampments provides an unprecedented look atone of the most significant student movements in modern history. The film captures the passion, resilience, and challenges faced by students who risked everything to demand justice. The film delves into how universities responded with mass arrests and force rather than engagement and dialogue, and it sheds light on the institutions’ efforts to suppress student activism. In doing so, it offers a deeper understanding of both the power and the costs of grassroots movements.

David Cronenberg delivers an entirely new take on body horror, reinventing the game yet again with his new film The Shrouds. This dramatic sci-fi thriller is a reflective stunner that combines the maestro’s signature body horror with profound elder-statesman reflection. Entering his 80s, Cronenberg (The Fly, Dead Ringers, History of Violence) continues to find new ways to innovate what can be done with bodies in cinema, losing none of his edge while demonstrating a true sense of empathy; the result is a film that astonishes while also being his most accessible film since Eastern Promises. 

In an eerie, deceptively placid near-future, a techno-entrepreneur named Karsh (Vincent Cassel) has developed a new software that will allow the bereaved to bear witness to the gradual decay of loved ones dead and buried in the earth. While Karsh is still reeling from the loss of his wife (Diane Kruger) from cancer—and falling into a peculiar sexual relationship with his wife’s sister (also Kruger)—a spate of vandalized graves utilizing his “shroud” technology begins to put his enterprise at risk, leading him to uncover a potentially vast conspiracy.

Our 21st Century Cult series is bringing back Josie and the Pussycats, a riotous, colorful satire that blends infectious pop music with sharp commentary on consumer culture and the music industry.

The film follows Josie (Rachael Leigh Cook), Melody (Tara Reid), and Valerie (Rosario Dawson), three small-town girls who form a rock band and get swept up in the glitzy world of fame, where they discover the dark undercurrents of the music industry. As they rise to stardom, they find themselves being manipulated by an all-powerful corporation that’s using their music to influence the minds of consumers.

Though initially dismissed as a bubblegum teen comedy, Josie and the Pussycats has become a cult classic, with its hilarious take on the superficiality of pop culture, its clever script, and its killer soundtrack.
