There, he photographs an eclectic band of “catadores”— self-designated pickers of recyclable materials. Muniz’s initial objective was to “paint” the catadores with garbage. However, his collaboration with these inspiring characters as they recreate photographic images of themselves out of garbage reveals both the dignity and despair of the’catadores’ as they begin to re-imagine their lives.

Matt Dann Movie samsara Prepare yourself for an unparalleled sensory experience. Samsara reunites director Ron Fricke and producer Mark Magidson, whose awardwinning films Baraka and Chronos were acclaimed for combining visual and musical artistry. Samsara is a Sanskrit word that means “the ever turning wheel of life” and is the point of departure for the filmmakers as they search for the elusive current of interconnection that runs through our lives. Filmed over a period of almost five years and in twenty-five countries, Samsara transports us to sacred grounds, disaster zones, industrial sites, and natural wonders. By dispensing with dialogue and descriptive text, Samsara subverts our expectations of a traditional documentary, instead encouraging our own inner interpretations inspired by images and music that infuses the ancient with the modern. Brought to you by our Matt’s Mates (Friends 13

of the Theatre), the movie will be followed by a group discussion where tea, coffee and cakes will be offered while patrons will share their thoughts about the movie and get to know each other. When: Time: Where: Map: Cost: Rated: Genre: Info:
