MAMMA ROMA
August 30,
2021
Pier Paolo Pasolini, Italy, 1962, 110 minutes, B &
W Italian (English subtitles)
Anna Magnani is Mamma Roma, a middle-aged prostitute who attempts to
extricate herself from her sordid past for the sake of her son.
Filmed in the great tradition of Italian neorealism, Mamma
Roma offers an unflinching look at the struggle for survival in
postwar Italy, and highlights director Pier Paolo Pasolini’s lifelong
fascination with the marginalized and dispossessed. Though banned
upon its release in Italy for obscenity, today Mamma
Roma remains a classic, featuring a powerhouse performance by
one of cinema’s greatest actresses and offering a glimpse at a country’s
most controversial director in the process of finding his style.

"Angst"
Film Screening and Mental Health Panel, Sept. 30 6:30-8pm
The SHaW Center is excited to partner with EveryMind
to bring a screening of the documentary "Angst" the
Montgomery College. This film works to remove the stigma and open up
the conversation around anxiety, helping people understand and manage
their symptoms, and when to reach out for help. Most importantly, it
shows people that they are not alone, and that anxiety is treatable.
You can view the film's trailer here: https://www.indieflix.com/angst
Following the film, we will hold a panel discussion
about mental health, anxiety, and its impacts on not just the person
struggling with those feelings, but the people who care about them.
Register now at bit.ly/SHaWAngst.
