RHODES University’s International Office and School of Languages take great pleasure in presenting an annual series of exciting films from around the world, free of charge.

The films we screen vary from fascinating documentaries about topical issues to classic as well as contemporary movies by internationally renowned directors.

You can also expect a fair dose of offbeat and experimental fare. Filmfest’s aim is to promote an awareness of the weird and wonderful, sometimes disturbing, sometimes funny, world we live in and the diverse cultures that populate it.

All screenings take place on Tuesday evenings at 7pm in the Eden Grove Red Lecture Theatre and everybody is welcome to attend.

9 February at 7pm Man on Wire UK and USA (2008) 94 minutes English and French with English subtitles
Director: James Marsh On 7 August 1974, Philippe Petit stepped out on a wire connecting New York’s twin towers. After nearly an hour dancing on the wire, he was arrested, taken for psychological evaluation,
then brought to jail and finally released.

James Marsh’s documentary brings Petit’s extraordinary adventure to life through the testimony of Philippe himself as well as that of some of the co-conspirators who helped him create
the unique and magnificent spectacle that became known as “the artistic crime of the century”.
