This Friday’s movie is a documentary rated G. This film was created as a non-profit documentary expression to inspire people to start looking at the world from a more critical perspective and to understand that very often things are not what the population at large think they are. The movie starts at 7 p.m., and popcorn is free. You are also welcome to bring your own snacks.
