It's Only Life After All - The Indigo Girls
“The Indigo Girls make a far more intriguing subject for a music doc than most who’ve gotten the treatment in recent years.”-Variety “An adoring opus... Brimming with previously unseen footage and refreshing frank interviews.”—IndieWire “Intimate and heartfelt rockumentary.”—The Hollywood Reporter “The rare confessional rockumentary that envelops you like a soft blanket.”—The Hollywood Reporter Atlanta-based singer-songwriters Amy Ray and Emily Saliers began performing together in high school before becoming the acclaimed folk-rock duo Indigo Girls. After playing local clubs for years, Indigo Girls and their distinctive vocal harmonies slipped into mainstream consciousness in the late 1980s and early ’90s with a Grammy win and hit song with "Closer to Fine." Intimate, fun, and filled with great music, It’s Only Life After All allows Ray and Saliers to look back on their musical partnership, personal demons, and careers spanning three decades with self-criticism, humor, and honesty. Encore special, Saturday, 4/20, 11 AM, tickets $10.
Common Ground
Presented in association with Camas Farmers Market. Common Ground is the highly anticipated sequel to the juggernaut success documentary, Kiss the Ground, which touched over 1 billion people globally and inspired the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) to put $20 billion toward soil health. By fusing journalistic exposé with deeply personal stories from those on the front lines of the food movement, Common Ground unveils a dark web of money, power, and politics behind our broken food system. The film reveals how unjust practices forged our current farm system in which farmers of all colors are literally dying to feed us. The film profiles a hopeful and uplifting movement of white, black, and indigenous farmers who are using alternative "regenerative" models of agriculture that could balance the climate, save our health, and stabilize America's economy -- before it's too late. Special screenings April 20 at 11:30 AM and April 24 at 7 PM. Tickets $10, 10% of all ticket proceeds are donated to the Camas Farmers Market.
Exhibition On Screen: John Singer Sargent - Fashion & Swagger
John Singer Sargent is known as the greatest portrait artist of his era. What made his ‘swagger’ portraits remarkable was his power over his sitters, what they wore and how they were presented to the audience. Through interviews with curators, contemporary fashionistas and style influencers, Exhibition on Screen’s film will examine how Sargent’s unique practice has influenced modern art, culture and fashion. Filmed at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Tate Britain, London, the exhibition reveals Sargent’s power to express distinctive personalities, power dynamics and gender identities during this fascinating period of cultural reinvention. Alongside 50 paintings by Sargent sit stunning items of clothing and accessories worn by his subjects, drawing the audience into the artist’s studio. Sargent’s sitters were often wealthy, their clothes costly, but what happens when you turn yourself over to the hands of a great artist? The manufacture of public identity is as controversial and contested today as it was at the turn of the 20th century, but somehow Sargent’s work transcends the social noise and captures an alluring truth with each brush stroke. Special engagement, Sunday, April 21 & Wednesday, April 24. Tickets $13, $11 for seniors and children under 13. Tickets now on sale.

Resistance: They Fought Back
Special Presentation for Holocaust Memorial Day, May 5. For decades, the world believed that Jews faced their fate passively during the Holocaust, much like sheep to the slaughter. This ambitious and groundbreaking film unveils a different story, shedding light on the heroic stories of Jews who actively resisted their oppressors. They engaged in over 60 armed uprisings in ghettos, 25 within concentration and slave labor camps, numbered in the thousands among partisan units in the forests of Europe, and joined in non-violent resistance campaigns against the Nazis. Resistance: They Fought Back travels to Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Israel, and the U.S. to illuminate the forgotten, and largely unknown, stories of Jewish resistance during the Holocaust — and honors the fighters' soulful bravery and leadership. Through interviews with historians, survivors, and their families, the film belies a long-held myth and shines a new light on a lost chapter of history. Showing Sunday, May 5, Time TBA, Tickets $10
