WHAT’S ON THIS WEEK
...............................................................
This week at the Film Group, we shine the spotlight on inspirational real-life figures, controversial religions and mysterious street artists with two riveting and thought-provoking double features.
• Fri 11 Sep @ 7:30 PM: GODS + WALESA: MAN OF HOPE
In GODS, a cardiac surgeon must overcome adverse circumstances in 1980s communist Poland to perform the country's very first human heart transplant. Exclusive Canberra premiere of the award-winning Polish box office hit!
Then, in WALESA: MAN OF HOPE (at approx. 9:30 PM) discover the true tale of the charismatic electrician who revolutionised Poland in the 1970s – founding the Solidarity movement and winning a Nobel Peace Prize along the way.
**Both screenings proudly presented by the Embassy of Poland and Puma Media**
• Sat 12 Sep @ **7 PM**: GOING CLEAR: SCIENTOLOGY AND THE PRISON OF BELIEF + BANKSY DOES NEW YORK
In GOING CLEAR, take a peek behind the closed doors of the Church of Scientology in this devastating, highly controversial documentary that lays bare the religion through uncovered footage, testimonials and reconstructions.
Then, in BANSKY DOES NEW YORK (at approx. 9 PM), infamous street artist Banksy’s month-long residency in New York is chronicled in this user-generated film pieced together from footage filmed by unsuspecting members of the public.
