Opening FRIDAY
May 16th
In 2003, eight Rhode Islanders created a secret apartment inside the busy Providence Place Mall and kept it going for four years, filming everything along the way. Far more than just a wild prank, the secret mall apartment became an incredibly meaningful act for all the participants, at once an act of defiance against local gentrification, a boundary-pushing work of public/private art, and a 750 square foot space that sticks it to the man.

JOIN US AFTER THE FILM for an in-person Q&A/Discussion
with Editor/Co-Producer, Ahmad Hussam!
Ahmad Hussam is an activist, filmmaker, and founder of Propaganda & Co., a media project focused on exposing and analyzing propaganda through cinematic, investigative storytelling. His work combines historical context and geopolitical insight to challenge dominant narratives and empower public understanding of the human cost of imperial violence.
​​
Co-produced by Ahmad Hussam, Sut Jhally, Robbie Leppzer, and Max Blumenthal of the Grayzone, Atrocity Inc. unmasks atrocity hoaxes and media deceptions utilized by Israel in the wake of Oct. 7th to justify its destruction of Gaza and the genocidal collective punishment of its civilian population. This important, hard-hitting documentary reveals the origins of since-debunked atrocity narratives, uncritically consumed by the media and high-profile political figures and breathlessly repeated to the unsuspecting public. A bracing reality-check and potent antidote to the inflammatory, discredited claims recycled in the recently-released Sheryl Sandberg-produced film, “October 8th.”​

What happens when a comedian walks into a volcano?
In 2023, Ben Miller was the artist in residence at Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park, the first ever stand-up comedian ever selected. This was probably a terrible idea on their part.
Come watch this show where scientist turned stand-up comedian Ben Miller explores volcanology, entomology, Hawaiian history, cats, cookies, and more. And yes that photo is real. Ben has made people laugh in front of a burning lava lake and he is not afraid of you.
Ben Miller is an NYC based scientist turned comedian who has been working for the past 8 years. In that time, he has performed at all the top clubs in the city such as Broadway Comedy Club, Carolines, and The Stand. Ben was once ranked as the top roast battler in NYC. He has a degree in Materials Science and Engineering, worked on a science bus, 3D printed cookies and has defused a few bar fights while on stage. In 2022, Ben Miller's debut hour, Stand-Up Science, had a completely sold-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and he now tours internationally.​

RAN – 40th Anniversary 4K Re-Master!!
​
Celebrate the 40th anniversary re-release of Akira Kurosawa’s final epic masterpiece RAN (1985), starring Tatsuya Nakadai!
​
With Ran, legendary director Akira Kurosawa reimagines Shakespeare’s King Lear as a singular historical epic set in sixteenth-century Japan. Majestic in scope, the film is Kurosawa’s late-life masterpiece, a profound examination of the folly of war and the crumbling of one family under the weight of betrayal, greed, and the insatiable thirst for power.
