Hey guys,

For this weeks screening we'll be watching: Linha de Passe!
All students and staff from Auckland University are welcome to join us this Wednesday 17th March from 5pm at room 206 in the Arts I building.
Linha de Passe (2008)Directed by Walter Salles, Daniela Thomas.
In the periphery of São Paulo, the pregnant single mother Cleuza works as maid in the apartment of a middle-class family. Each of her sons has a different unknown father: the oldest, Dênis, has a baby son that lives with his mother and he works as motorcycle courier; Dinho is a converted Christian and works as attendant in a gas station; Dario is an aspirant soccer player that is getting older without the expected chance in a team; and the youngest, Reginaldo, is obsessed about finding his father who works as a bus driver, and spends most of his spare time traveling by bus. Along the months, each brother experiences new deceptions and expectations while the family fights to survive. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Film is in Portuguese with English Subtitles.
Looking forward to seeing you all there!!
