Music Box (Costa-Gavras, 1989)

Films are a universal attractive language and a tool to connect with different people in just around 90 minutes. Good films can raise questions about worldviews, current  hot-topics, or even open our eyes to other people's experiences or situations that were unknown to us.In "Let's movie it!" we aim to show good quality movies with a wide variety of styles and themes, followed by an open discussion in an informal and friendly atmosphere, hoping to leave some food for thought.

Let's movie it!

Film screening, followed by open discussion. A good opportunity to talk about many relevant issues in a relaxed and informal setting. Free.

Kraneweg 33

- - - - ~ - - - - This Monday we received the news that Edith Eger, one of the remaining Auschwitz survivors, passed away at the age of 98. In the last years of her life she wrote several best-selling books about her personal experiences, and counselling people through trauma. Sometimes, it is better to forget the past and move on. At other times, forgetting can allow evil to flourish in the present and future, and cause us to lose our humanity. The film "Music Box" exposes this dilemma: should we dig into the past, or should we just live and enjoy the present? Why should we make the effort to gather evidence from events that happened many years ago? What would we gain and what could be destroyed by doing so? The film "Music Box" tells the story of a Hungarian family who is now well-integrated in the US. The father once received asylum because of World War II. However, around forty years later, new evidence emerged suggesting that he may have lied in his asylum application. His daughter, now a successful lawyer, will defend him. This will reveal new perspectives (and secrets) of their family's past, resulting in a delicate trial process in which family bonds and the truth conflict with each other - and exposing weak spots in the judicial system. Music Box (Costa-Gavras, 1989) Friday 8th May, 19.30h (Open doors from 19h). We meet in the SKLO building (Kraneweg 33, Groningen) - first floor (upstairs, room 13).
