SUMMARY:Met Opera Encore: El ÚLtimo Sueño de Frida y Diego
DESCRIPTION:The Metropolitan Opera’s 2025–26 Live in HD season comes to a close with American composer Gabriela Lena Frank’s first opera\, El ÚLtimo Sueño de Frida y Diego (“The Last Dream of Frida and Diego”)\, a magical-realist portrait of Mexico’s painterly power couple Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera\, with libretto by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Nilo Cruz. \nFashioned as a reversal of the Orpheus and Euridice myth\, the story depicts Frida\, sung by leading mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard\, leaving the underworld on the Day of the Dead and reuniting with Diego\, portrayed by baritone Carlos Álvarez. The famously feuding pair briefly relive their tumultuous love\, embracing both the passion and the pain before bidding the land of the living a final farewell. \nMusic Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts the Met-premiere staging of Frank’s opera\, a “confident\, richly imagined score” (The New Yorker) that “bursts with color and fresh individuality” (Los Angeles Times). The vibrant new production\, taking enthusiastic inspiration from Frida and Diego’s paintings\, is directed and choreographed by Deborah Colker. \nThis screening is a high-definition broadcast from the Metropolitan Opera in New York City. All Met Opera Encore shows > \nTickets: $16-19. This screening is eligible for the Youth Arts Access Fund. \ntickets  trailer

SUMMARY:Pressure
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special Memorial Day screening before the film begins its regular run on May 29! \nIn the tense 72 hours before D-Day\, with the fate of the free world hanging in the balance\, Pressure follows General Dwight D.

SUMMARY:Canoe Dig It?
DESCRIPTION:Two Screenings: May 9 + 10 at 1:00 p.m. \nCanoe Dig It? is a mockumentary comedy about a fictional canoeing competition in Northern Maine that highlights the very real and eccentric sport of Freestyle Canoeing\, a performative art best described as “canoe dancing.” Competitors paddle out to spin\, dip\, and “dance” in perfect synchronization with music of their choice\, blending athleticism and artistry on the water.

Among them are a cutthroat perfectionist\, a backwoods natural\, an aging underdog\, a bickering couple of summer camp owners\, and a hard-rocking bartender. As they prepare for the big stage—or rather\, lake—audiences get a glimpse into their personal lives\, their eclectic training methods\, and the unique challenges of the freestyle canoeing world. \n(Not Rated\, 78 min.\, 2025) \nAdmission: $9-10.

SUMMARY:MJFF: The Stamp Thief
DESCRIPTION:Date: Wednesday\, April 29 at 7pm \nRuntime: 1 hour 43 minutes \nMPA Rating: Not Rated \nOrganization: Maine Film Center \nVenue: Maine Film Center\, 93 Main Street\, Waterville\, Maine \nThis film is eligible for the Youth Arts Access Fund. \nPart of the Maine Jewish Film Festival! \nPart detective story\, part heist film\, and part historical reckoning\, The Stamp Thief is an engrossing cat-and-mouse journey that delves into a decades-old mystery rooted in the Holocaust. The film reveals the story of a rogue Nazi officer tasked with cataloging the valuables of Jews sent to concentration camps. Rather than aiding the victims\, he seized the opportunity to steal millions of dollars worth of rare stamps and buried them in his home—now modern-day Poland. In a real-life\, Argo-like mission\, former Seinfeld producer Gary Gilbert embarks on a daring quest to uncover the truth and recover the stolen stamps. Disguising his investigation as a movie shoot\, Gilbert seeks to return the stamps to their rightful heirs\, delivering a small yet powerful act of justice more than 75 years after the Holocaust. \ntickets

SUMMARY:Fire at Sea
DESCRIPTION:Date: April 23 at 7pm \nRuntime: 1 hour 54 minutes\, followed by discussion \nMPA Rating: Not Rated \nOrganization: Maine Film Center \nVenue: Maine Film Center\, 93 Main Street\, Waterville\, Maine \nFree and open to all\, ticket reservations encouraged. \nSponsored by the Department of Francophone and Italian Studies\, Cinema Studies\, and the Center for the Arts and Humanities at Colby College. \nSituated 150 miles south of Sicily\, Lampedusa hit headlines as the first port of call for hundreds of thousands of African and Middle Eastern refugees hoping to make a new life in Europe. After spending months living on the island and engaging with its inhabitants\, director Gianfranco Rosi accumulated an incredible array of footage\, portraying the history\, culture and daily lives of the islanders. Focusing on 12-year-old Samuele as he explores the land and attempts to gain mastery of the sea\, the film slowly builds a breathtakingly naturalistic portrait of the Lampedusan people\, the refugees\, and the events that surround them. The result is a lyrical\, poetic\, and searingly powerful documentary that casts neither judgement nor aspersions\, but simply shows the world—to utterly devastating effect. \nWinner of the Golden Bear for Best Film at the 2016 Berlin Film Festival and nominated for the 2017 Oscar for Best Documentary Feature\, Rosi’s deeply moving portrait of the Mediterranean island of Lampedusa and the humanitarian crisis occurring in the seas around it "peels away any pretense of resolution to the migrant crisis. Instead\, Fire at Sea constructs a history that finds stability in its certainty that empathy\, as the highest form of human connection\, must anchor any constructive response to displaced refugees."—Clayton Dillard\, Slant Magazine. \nBe sure to stay after the film to participate in an open discussion! \nIn English and in Italian with English subtitles. \ntickets

SUMMARY:Met Opera Encore: Cinderella
DESCRIPTION:This abridged\, English-language version of Massenet’s enchanting fairy-tale opera stars beloved mezzo-soprano Isabel Leonard as the rags-to-riches title princess\, with Emmanuel Villaume on the podium. The whimsical production by Laurent Pelly draws inspiration from a child’s storybook\, with larger-than-life costumes and zany characters. Running under two hours\, this is a particularly good title for younger audiences. Charles Perrault’s classic telling of the Cinderella story is an excellent source for an opera—providing color\, romance\, and relatable themes for audiences of all ages. \nThis presentation is a high-definition rebroadcast from the Metropolitan Opera in New York City. \nAll Met Opera Encore shows >> \nAdmission: $16-$19. Eligible for the Youth Arts Access Fund. \ntickets + trailer

SUMMARY:Thelma & Louise
DESCRIPTION:Date: February 14 + 15 at 1:30pm \nRuntime: 2 hours 10 minutes \nMPA Rating: R \nOrganization: Maine Film Center \nVenue: Maine Film Center\, 93 Main Street\, Waterville\, Maine \nThis film is eligible for the Youth Arts Access Fund. \n\n\n\nTwo women\, a turquoise Thunderbird\, the ride of a lifetime. \nMeek housewife Thelma (Geena Davis) joins her friend Louise (Susan Sarandon)\, an independent waitress\, on a short fishing trip. When a chance encounter at a roadside bar goes horribly wrong\, their weekend getaway becomes a high-speed flight from the law as the two women attempt to flee to Mexico\, meeting a host of characters along the way that include the dashing-but-dangerous J.D. (Brad Pitt's star-making role) and a sympathetic police officer (Harvey Keitel). There's no trip like a girls' trip! \nWinning an Oscar for Callie Khoury's screenplay and nominated for five others\, including two Best Actresses and Best Director\, Ridley Scott's legendary feminist ride-or-die road trip is an utterly irresistible reimagining of the previously male-dominated road odyssey genre that reminds us of the resources\, capabilities\, and freedoms we may not know we possess. "Thelma and Louise celebrates the myth of two carefree souls piling into a 1956 T-Bird and driving out of town to have some fun and raise some hell. We know the road better than that\, however\, and we know the toll it exacts: Before their journey is done\, these characters will have undergone a rite of passage\, and will have discovered themselves."—Roger Ebert.
