Join BloomBars on Tuesday, May 10th, for a film screening and discussion of "The Hero (O Herói).
The Hero (O Herói) - tells the story of Angola, a nation attempting to reconstruct itself after 40 continual years of anti-colonial and civil warfare, through the story of a veteran who has lost his leg, a prostitute who has lost a child and an orphaned boy. (Portuguese w/ English subtitles). This film screening is made possible thanks to our collaboration with The Camões Institute - a cultural and educational institution dedicated to the promotion of Portuguese language and culture. After the screening, we hope to have a representative from the Embassy of Angola join us for discussion.

Join fellow film buffs for a screening followed by a discussion with talking points about the film. Filmmakers, directors and subject matter experts join the discussion when possible.
