THE WRESTLER & ENVIRONMENT FILM FEST @ META
Dear Meta House friends,are you ready to rumble?
Darren Aronofsky has been one of the few American directors whose movies
upset the complacency of indie cinema. We screen his newest film "THE
WRESTLER" this TUESDAY, 02/06, 7 PM @ Meta House. The compelling drama stars
Mickey Rourke as washed-up '80s wrestler Randy Robinson. US Today: "Rourke
gives the performance of his life."
On WEDNESDAY, 03/06, 7 PM, we start a five-days-film-festival as part of
"The Environment Week") with the award-winning documentary "UP THE YANGTZE"
in coop. with the Heinrich-Boell-Foundation.
Detailed information below.
Best regards, your MH-team
