WEEKNIGHTS
Movies speak a visual language. More and more, they speak the same visual language. Not WEEKNIGHTS. A three-way character-study, thematically about loneliness, this tiny but lovingly crafted movie is essentially a montage. Lengthy wide shots. No score. Very little dialogue. Just characters in a place, revealing themselves to us with gestures, a few words, mostly silence. It's beautiful and meditative. Join director Alfred Giancarli for an unforgettable night with a new kind of movie. Tickets.
