Zeitgeist CALENDAR
The Following events will be in our new theater & lounge @ 6621 St. Claude Ave (in Arabi):
_____________
Thursday, December 5:
Films:
3:15 pm daily - AMERICAN SOCIALIST: THE LIFE AND TIMES OF EUGENE VICTOR DEBS, Bernie Sanders inspired a generation - but who inspired him? This is the passionate, thoughtful biography of the founder of the American Socialist Party, five-time presidential candidate and the only presidential candidate in US history to be imprisoned for his campaign platform. The values with which lived his life and fought for social and economic justice remain in short supply today.
5:00 pm daily - VARDA BY AGNES, The final film from the late, beloved Agnès Varda is a characteristically playful, profound, and personal summation of the director’s own brilliant career. At once impish and wise, she acts as our spirit guide on a free-associative tour through her six-decade artistic journey, shedding new light on her films, photography, and recent installation works while offering her one-of-a-kind reflections on everything from filmmaking to feminism to aging.
7:15 pm nightly - THE LIGHTHOUSE, Willem Dafoe & Robert Pattinson star in this hypnotic and hallucinatory tale of two lighthouse keepers on a remote and mysterious New England island in the 1890s. Held Over - 3rd week.
9:15 pm nightly - EVERYBODY’S EVERYTHING, Creating a unique mix of punk, emo and trap, Lil Peep was set to bring a new musical genre to the mainstream when he died of a drug overdose at just 21 years old. Executive produced by Terrence Malick, Everybody’s Everything is an intimate, humanistic portrait that seeks to understand an artist who attempted to be all things to all people.

THREE CHRISTS, In 1959, psychiatrist Dr. Alan Stone (Richard Gere) arrives at a mental hospital in Ypsilanti, Michigan armed with the radical belief that schizophrenic patients should be treated not with confinement and electroshock therapy but with empathy and understanding. As his first study, he takes on the particularly challenging case of three men—Joseph (Peter Dinklage), Leon (Walton Goggins), and Clyde (Bradley Whitford)—each of whom believes they are Jesus Christ.
Opens January 10:
MIDNIGHT FAMILY, this award-winning documentary follows the Ochoa family who run a private ambulance service in Mexico City for patients in need of urgent help who can’t afford other for-profit EMTs.

Co-presented by the Meraux Foundation. Free.
Opens February 14:
EAT BRAINS LOVE, An ordinary lunch hour explodes in an orgy of spurting blood and flying organs when stoner Jake Stephens and cheerleader Amanda Blake suddenly gut-munch half their class in the school cafeteria. Afflicted with a zombie virus, they hit road in search of a cure while outrunning Cass, a telepath charged with hunting and killing the infected. Can Jake and Amanda find love while eating their way through the national sex offender registry? The director of IDLE HANDS delivers an outrageous, gore-soaked zom-rom-com. Shot outside of Baton Rouge. Cast - Jake Cannavale, Angelique Rivera, Sarah Yarkin, Patrick Fabian, Jim Titus.
