May 6: Dead Pigs (Cathy Yan, China 2018)

A dark comedy that connects the stories of five disparate characters in a modernizing Shanghai, using the real-life 2013 event of thousands of dead pigs floating down the Huangpu River as its backdrop. The plot follows a pig farmer, a stubborn beauty salon owner whose home is being bought by a developer, an American architect working on that development, a sensitive busboy, and a disenchanted rich girl whose lives converge as they navigate personal, financial, and ethical struggles in a rapidly changing China

Screenings begin at 7:00pm in the Neville Auditorium.

All films are free and open to the public and are unrated but intended for a mature audience.
