Don't miss a very special advanced screening of THE FAREWELL to close out the 2018-2019 Hirschfield International Film Series. Please join the Film and Media Culture Department in Dana Auditorium this Saturday, May 4th at 3pm or 8pm to see this standout from the 2019 Sundance Film Festival before the theatrical release this summer.
In this funny, uplifting tale based on an actual lie, Chinese-born, U.S.-raised Billi (Awkwafina) reluctantly returns to Changchun to find that, although the whole family knows their beloved matriarch Nai-Nai (grandma) has been given mere weeks to live, everyone has decided not to tell Nai Nai herself.
This event is free and open to the public. This film is rated PG.
The 2019-2020 series will return in September and you can always find more information at go.middlebury.edu/hirschfield
