Thrive! brings film to Animas City Theatre

Thrive! will be hosting the premier Durango screening of the film, “The Look of Silence,” this weekend at the Animas City Theatre. The event is a benefit for Thrive!

La Plata County THRIVE! Living Wage Coalition will host the premier Durango screening of the documentary, “The Look of Silence,” from 4:30 to 8 p.m. Sunday at Animas City Theatre, 128 E. College Dr.

Directed by two-time Academy Award nominated director Joshua Oppenheimer, “The Look of Silence” is the story of a survivor of the mass killings targeting communists in1965-66 in Indonesia who confronts his brother’s killers – an incredibly brave act given the fact that the murderers remain in power.

This film is a companion piece to Oppenheimer’s other film, “The Act of Killing.”

The screening will start at 5 p.m., with snacks and a cash bar opening at 4:30 p.m. and a discussion and message from Oppenheimer afterward.

Proceeds from the event will benefit La Plata County Thrive! Living Wage Coalition.

Tickets are $25 and are available at Animas City Theatre or by calling 903-0957.
