The Charles Dickens holiday classic comes to life as a live 1940s radio broadcast, complete with vintage commercials for fruitcake (extra-fancy), and the magic of live sound effects and musical underscoring. A handful of actors bring dozens of characters to the stage, as the familiar story unfolds: Three ghosts take Ebenezer Scrooge on a thrilling journey to teach him the true meaning of Christmas. A charming take on a family favorite that will leave no one saying “Bah Humbug!”

The Close-Up Series continues with a special screening of last season’s documentary official selections; powerful, intimate stories created by emerging filmmakers from across our community. After the films, audiences are invited to stay for a lively panel discussion with the student directors themselves. Hear firsthand how these young storytellers found their subjects, shaped their narratives, and navigated the challenges unique to documentary filmmaking. It’s an opportunity to witness the next generation of nonfiction voices up close and in conversation.

This screening included live Q&A with the filmmakers. An immersive archival documentary that reanimates the clash between the then-emerging World Trade Organization (WTO) and the more than 40,000 people who took to the streets of Seattle to protest the WTO's impact on human rights, labor, and the future effects of continued globalization. “A galvanizing historical document that tells us exactly how we arrived on the crumbling ground we’re presently standing on.” —RogerEbert.com “Breathtakingly prescient; a preview of present-day American politics, injustice, and the consolidation of power.” —Vancouver International Film Festival “While many docs resemble souped-up Wikipedia entries, WTO/99 feels like a political thriller, one that jackknifes the past into the present.” —Critic Speak “The militarization of the police, the proliferation of right-wing media and fake news, the collapse of our democracy into fascism, and the ever-growing power of multinational corporations all seem to be taking hold before our eyes in this film.” —Eric Allen Hatch
