Movie Screening
Movies: A Pathway To Grace, the SIGNIS way
The Academy-Award nominated film 3 Billboards outside Ebbing, Missouri, will be screened, followed by facilitated discussion among the attendees. The methodology used will be in the long tradition of SIGNIS and its predecessor, the International Catholic Organization for Cinema, which seats awards juries in some 40 international film festivals, including Cannes, Venice, and Berlin. This is not a lecture or panel discussion, but participant conversation.
