Please join us in viewing the second film in this series, "Rang De Basanti"! Five nonchalant young people are persuaded to act in a British documentary film about Indian Independence.

Afterwards, we will have a discussion on the film.

TIME: 2 pm - 5 pm
PLACE: 430 Blegen Hall, Minneapolis West Bank
