SUMMARY:END OF HISTORY (2025) + virtual Q&A with director Jacob Gregor
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Shot on a shoestring budget of around $5\,000 during a 10-day road trip to Deadhorse\, Alaska\, Jacob Gregor’s End of History has more to say about the bleak state of American culture than most multi-million dollar films. Following an isolated man’s journey\, whose mind is being deteriorated by media figures enacting more damage than society may realize\, Gregor crafts a feat of American slow cinema\, capturing the country in all its loneliness and degradation.” – The Film Stage \n\n\n\nA nameless man (Matt Calhoun) obsessed with motivational and right-wing “manosphere” culture goes on a hollow road trip of non-discovery in this hypnotic feature by director Jacob Gregor. A microbudget two-man production made on a road trip from Chicago to Alaska\, End of History is a bone-dry\, satirically bleak character study about a flattening culture and landscape. Playing like some cursed collaboration between James Benning and Lex Fridman\, Gregor’s film is at one hypnotically beautiful\, repulsively fascinating\, and shockingly funny—the rare film that truly understands our current moment of self-imposed isolation and desiccated masculinity.  \n\n\n\nA virtual Q&A with director Jacob Gregor will immediately follow the film. \n\n\n\nThis screening is presented in cooperation with Means TV. \n\n\n\nWHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING…\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Jeanne Dielman for incels” \n\n\n\n\n“Jeanne Dielman for red-pilled incels (complimentary). Lot of lines here made me burst out laughing. A lot of other lines made my blood run cold.” \n\n\n\n\n\nJacob Farley \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Movie of the year” \n\n\n\n\nHoly shit. My movie of the year. [Todd Haynes’] SAFE for men. Beautiful AFFECTING shots. A lot of bitches be like ‘this movie is so urgent’ but like this movie is so urgent. \n\n\n\n★ ★ ★ ★ ★ \n\n\n\n\n\nMiles \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Really fucking funny” \n\n\n\n\n“What could have been a thin gimmick lends itself cinematically to a lot of potential excavation. The long final shot encapsulates the film’s freewheeling range of formal\, durational\, comedic\, dramatic\, mundane\, and absurd preoccupations. And it vindicates the entire project as something worthwhile and illuminating and really fucking funny.” \n\n\n\n\n\n★ ★ ★ ★ ½ \n\n\n\nSable \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:THE ALABAMA SOLUTION presented by Empower Missouri
DESCRIPTION:RESERVE SEATS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin Empower Missouri for a free screening of the documentary The Alabama Solution. \n\n\n\n“Scalding… exerts a grip like a thriller” – Variety \n\n\n\nIn 2019\, filmmakers Andrew Jarecki and Charlotte Kaufman (HBO’s The Jinx) visited an Alabama prison\, where\, off camera\, incarcerated men whispered a message: terrible things are going on and being kept secret. This reveal sparked an immersive six-year investigation to discover the reality behind one of the nation’s deadliest prison systems. With unprecedented access and video shot on contraband cell phones\, the directors learn of a suspicious and violent death\, which wasn’t an isolated incident – and that the official version appears far from the truth. A shocking story of brutality\, corruption\, and a system in collapse\, The Alabama Solution shines a light on the inmates fighting for their survival who\, against all odds\, embark on a powerful campaign of resistance. \n\n\n\nThis screening is free and open to the public. Seats can be reserved using the button at the top of this page. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:KURONEKO (1968) -- Folk Horror from Japan
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“One of the greatest of Japanese ghost stories\, a horror film of elemental drive\, social commentary\, feminist rage\, and visual grace.” – Sean Axmaker \n\n\n\nIn this poetic and atmospheric horror fable\, set in a village in war-torn medieval Japan\, a malevolent spirit has been ripping out the throats of itinerant samurai.

SUMMARY:Chris Elliott's surreal cult comedy CABIN BOY (1994)
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Extremely weird\, and certainly not for everyone. Yet very\, very brilliant in its own strange way.” – New Times \n\n\n\nA cult classic for fancy lads everywhere\, Cabin Boy was met with a frothy blend of confusion and hostility upon first release but has aged like a fine flagon of wine.  \n\n\n\nFrom Chris Elliott and Adam Resnick\, co-creators of the influential deconstructed sitcom Get a Life\, Cabin Boy is one of the most surreal comedies ever released by a major Hollywood studio. After graduating from finishing school as a well-bred “Fancy Lad\,” Nathanial Mayweather (Elliott) prepares for a trip to Hawaii. But his plans are dashed when he mistakenly boards The Filthy Whore\, a fishing boat manned by a ragtag crew of salty shipmates\, and soon becomes the vessel’s hapless Cabin Boy. On his journey\, he woos the feisty but beautiful Trina (Melora Walters) and encounters a host of eye-rubbing curiosities including an amiable shark man\, a savage ice monster\, a tobacco-chewing cupcake\, and a six-armed seductress (Ann Magnuson) who relieves Nathanial of his virginity\, much to the displeasure of her 30-foot salesman husband (Mike Starr).  \n\n\n\nInspired by classic seafaring yarns like Captains Courageous\, Cabin Boy has grown in reputation over the years as a truly offbeat cult comedy-fantasy with Ray Harryhausen-like special effects\, a hilariously oddball performance by Elliott\, and a treasure chest of eccentric supporting players including Brian Doyle-Murray\, Brion James\, James Gammon\, Andy Richter and Russ Tamblyn\, plus a seminal cameo by Elliott and Resnick’s old boss David Letterman as an antagonistic sock-monkey vendor. \n\n\n\nCome out early for a Chris Elliott pre-show beginning at 6:30 pm! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:John Waters' MULTIPLE MANIACS (1970)
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Cheapo\, indie\, queer American cinema at its most adversarial and thrillingly vicious!” – Globe & Mail \n\n\n\nJohn Waters’ gloriously grotesque second feature is replete with all manner of depravity\, from robbery to murder to one of cinema’s most memorably blasphemous moments. Made on a shoestring budget in Waters’ native Baltimore\, with the filmmaker taking on nearly every technical task\, this gleeful mockery of the peace-and-love ethos of its era features the Cavalcade of Perversion\, a traveling show mounted by a troupe of misfits whose shocking proclivities are topped only by those of their leader: the glammer-than-glam\, larger-than-life Divine\, out for blood after discovering her lover’s affair. Starring members of Waters’ beloved regular cast\, the Dreamlanders (including David Lochary\, Mary Vivian Pearce\, Mink Stole\, Susan Lowe\, Edith Massey\, George Figgs\, and Cookie Mueller)\, Multiple Maniacs is an anarchic masterwork from an artist who has doggedly tested the limits of good taste for decades. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:MIAMI VICE (2006) -- 20th anniversary screening w/ Moody Rock pre-show
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Miami Vice looks and moves like no other movie. It was shot in large part on grainy handheld digital video\, which lends the action a sense of immediacy. Though its technology has become outdated\, Miami Vice still feels new and different.” – Ignatiy Vishnevetsky\, The A.V. Club \n\n\n\nMichael Mann’s oft-maligned masterpiece Miami Vice retools the glossy 1980s series into a moody\, achingly romantic thriller that captured the look and feel of the mid aughts\, even as audiences and critics at the time of its release largely rejected the film for its smudgy digital textures and murky moral ambiguities. Colin Farrell and Jamie Foxx anchor a terse\, emotionally raw undercover cop drama that takes us through Miami’s cartel-dominated underbelly (and across the Florida Strait for some Mojitos)\, while Mann and cinematographer Dion Beebe paint the scenery with dancing digital pixels. The nocturnal heat of South Florida has never felt so wonderfully oppressive as it does during the film’s grainy nighttime action. Whether or not you’re a convert\, Miami Vice\, now 20 years young\, deserves another look on the big screen. \n\n\n\nBefore the film\, we’ll play tribute to the movie and show’s iconically sulky soundtrack with a Moody Rock pre-show starting at 6 pm. (Is this just an excuse to rock some Phil Collins? Maybe.) \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:TITANIC 666 (2022) -- Friday Night WTF -- FREE!
DESCRIPTION:Friday Night WTF screenings are cheap\, weird\, and out of control! Cult trashterpieces\, so-bad-they’re-good crapfests\, movies that make you ask “What the hell am I watching?!” — we’ve got ’em all on Friday night. \n\n\n\n“Absolutely awful. Loved every second of it!” – brandon nash\, Letterboxd \n\n\n\nHave you ever wondered\, what if the Titanic had a bunch of spooky ghosts on board? No?You’ve never wondered that? Well\, that’s okay\, we think you’ll still enjoy this 100% FREE screening of this infamously craptacular horror-disaster hybrid anyway!  \n\n\n\nWhen luxury liner Titanic 666 (yes\, that’s the actual name of the boat in this movie) sets sail\, a motley crew of influencers\, skeptics\, and a disgraced priest discover the ship may be haunted by the ghosts of the original victims of the Titanic disaster. Possessed deckhands\, satanic karaoke\, and a very persistent iceberg of doom turn the voyage into a floating funhouse that will make you laugh and cringe in equal measure. Leave your dignity at home or risk it sinking to the ocean floor as you endure this spectacularly stupid disasterpiece from the people who gave us the equally misguided\, though way less fun\, Titanic 2. \n\n\n\nThis screening is 100% FREE.

SUMMARY:Legendary fantasy-adventure extravaganza JASON AND THE ARGONAUTS (1963)
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Everyone loves it. It belongs on a short list of movies that are almost guaranteed to please everyone in any given audience\, no matter how old or young they are or what culture they were raised in.” – Matt Zoller-Seitz\, RogerEbert.com \n\n\n\nOne of the greatest\, most thrilling adventure movies of all time\, Jason and the Argonauts is pure cinematic joy. Based on the epic poem from Ancient Greece\, The Argonautica\, the film tells the tale of Jason (Todd Armstrong)\, son of a murdered King\, who is diverted from ascending the throne by his search for the Golden Fleece\, which can bring peace to his kingdom. A rip-roaring\, sea-faring fantasy-adventure\, Jason and the Argonauts is best known (and will forever be loved) for containing some of animator Ray Harryhausen’s most legendary effects: the multi-headed hydra\, the giant bronze statue come to life\, the bird-monster Harpies\, and of course\, the sword-wielding skeleton warriors. For fans of stop-motion\, this film is basically uncut heroin. Or\, as Tom Hanks perhaps more elegantly put it\, “Some say Casablanca or Citizen Kane – I say that Jason and the Argonauts is the greatest film ever made.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:THE LIFE AQUATIC WITH STEVE ZISSOU (2004) w/ Jacques Cousteau pre-show
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Still one of Wes Anderson’s funniest and most poignant movies\, as well as a love letter to his favorite muse: Bill Murray… The Life Aquatic is Wes Anderson’s most underrated movie.” – Den of Geek \n\n\n\nA wildly original adventure-comedy\, The Life Aquatic was the film that definitively proved that Wes Anderson exclusively makes Wes Anderson movies\, and if you don’t like it…that’s your problem. Bill Murray heads a typically eclectic ensemble cast as internationally famous oceanographer Steve Zissou\, who sets sail aboard the R.V. Belafonte on an expedition to hunt down the mysterious\, elusive\, possibly nonexistent Jaguar Shark that killed Zissou’s partner. The motley crew includes Owen Wilson as a sweet-natured airline pilot\, Cate Blanchett as a pregnant journalist\, Anjelica Huston as Zissou’s estranged wife\, Jeff Goldblum as her new lover\, and (our favorite) Willem Dafoe as Zissou’s obsequious German first mate. Shot in eye-popping Cinemascope\, The Life Aquatic is packed with stop-motion sea life\, brilliant “dollhouse” cutaways of the Belafonte\, hilarious gags\, and interstitial samba covers of Bowie classics courtesy of Brazilian musician Seu Jorge\, but underneath it all is a gorgeously poignant sense of yearning and loss. Hey\, this is a Wes Anderson movie\, after all. \n\n\n\nBefore the film\, we’ll pay tribute to the core inspiration for The Life Aquatic\, oceanographer-cum-filmmaker Jacques Cousteau with a pre-show beginning at 6:30 pm. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:Karel Zeman's eye-popping INVENTION FOR DESTRUCTION (1958) w/ Georges Méliès' "The Impossible Voyage"
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“The spectacular blend of animation\, artful sets\, mattes and live action… makes this whimsical and funny fairy-tale so enjoyable.” – Scifist \n\n\n\nBrilliant Czech animator Karel Zeman’s eye-popping spectacle is like a Victorian illustration come to life. Inspired by the romantic fantasy novels Jules Verne\, Invention for Destruction faithfully recreates the line engraving style of the pictures in the original editions of Verne’s work. Combining live actors with drawn animation\, cutouts\, matte paintings\, miniatures\, stop-motion\, and meticulously detailed horizontal line filters\, Zeman produced one of the most astoundingly original works in cinema. Original released in the US as The Fabulous World of Jules Verne\, Invention for Destruction not only went on to become the most successful Czech film in history\, it also basically invented steampunk. \n\n\n\nBut that’s not all! We’ve got some more Verne-inspired fantasia for you in the form of silent maestro Georges Méliès’ brilliant 1904 short The Impossible Voyage\, playing immediately before the feature. Based on Verne’s 1882 play Journey Through the Impossible\, this short is a fantastic showcase for Méliès’ wildly imaginative visual bravado. \n\n\n\nOTHER WORLDS brings you to strange new realms through science fiction and fantasy. Featuring classics\, hidden gems\, and cult favorites\, this series offers a mind-bending retreat from our mundane reality. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTheater Policies\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll seats are first-come\, first-served.\n\n\n\nThe theater opens 30 minutes prior to showtime\, except for “Happy Hour” events and pre-shows when the theater opens at the listed start time.\n\n\n\nWhen a screening is sold out\, we open a waitlist 30 minutes before showtime.

SUMMARY:DELIVERANCE (1972)
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“A haunting\, nightmarish vision.” – Time Out \n\n\n\n“This is the weekend they didn’t play golf\,” reads the ominously jocular tagline for director John Boorman’s legendarily unsettling 1972 film\, which stands as one of the most inspired combinations of filmmaker and source material in cinematic history. Based on James Dickey’s novel\, Deliverance follows a group of Atlanta businessmen who take a canoe trip through the remote backwoods of North Georgia. What happens next has lost little of its power to shock\, despite years of imitations and parodies. Boorman is in full command of his material here\, attaching a haunting\, mythic quality to the starkness of Dickey’s story. Combined with Vilmos Zsigmond’s moody camerawork and the sparse banjo-driven score\, the director gives his locations a heightened\, haunting quality. As gripping as the work behind the camera is though\, the film wouldn’t have nearly the kick it does without the central performances by Jon Voight\, Burt Reynolds\, Ronny Cox\, and especially Ned Beatty\, who skews the already slippery moral compass further by not playing his character as particularly sympathetic\, even in the wake of the movie’s most infamous scene. A surprise box office smash\, Deliverance was nominated for three Academy Awards\, including Best Picture\, losing out to The Godfather. The film still hits a primal nerve early on and then masterfully keeps on digging\, transforming its story of horror into something primal\, grasping\, and timeless. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:AMSTERDAMNED (1988) -- "Fast\, Gory\, Immensely Entertaining"
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“A fast\, gory\, immensely entertaining horror flick that cleverly crosses Dirty Harry with Jaws!” – The Guardian \n\n\n\nDown in the murky depths of Amsterdam’s famous canals lurks a murderous predator. Surfacing at night\, he kills at random and disappears without a trace. As the bodies begin to pile up and mass hysteria envelopes the city\, Detective Eric Visser (Huub Stapel) is assigned to head the investigation. With only the escalating number of victims to go on\, Visser pursues his quarry with a vengeance\, unaware that his beautiful new girlfriend (Monique van de Ven) may be the mysterious killer’s next victim. Highlighted by an explosive speedboat chase through the city’s narrow canals\, Amsterdamned combines the stabby murder-mystery pleasures of a giallo\, the subaquatic thrills of Jaws\, and the explosive pyrotechnics of a John Woo actioner into a lean\, mean slice of Eurosleaze! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

And one of the funniest!” – Newsweek \n\n\n\nOur Summer of John Waters comes to a close with this screening of his magnum opus: the midnight-movie smash that has been torturing audiences for over half a century\, the filthiest movie ever made\, and one of the most drop-dead comedies ever made… Pink Flamingos! Divine is iconic as the wanted criminal hiding out with her family of degenerates in a trailer outside Baltimore while reveling in her tabloid notoriety as the “Filthiest Person Alive.” When a pair of sociopaths (Mink Stole and David Lochary) with a habit of kidnapping women in order to impregnate them attempt to challenge her title\, Divine resolves to show them and the world the true meaning of the word “filth.” Incest\, cannibalism\, shrimping\, and film history’s most legendary gross-out ending—Waters and his merry band of Dreamlanders leave no taboo unsmashed in this gleefully subversive ode to outsiderhood\, in which camp spectacle and pitch-black satire are wielded in an all-out assault on respectability. You’ve been warned… \n\n\n\nCome out early for a tribute to John Waters’ greatest muse\, the one and only Divine\, with a pre-show starting at 6 pm. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:MUPPET TREASURE ISLAND (1996) -- 30th anniversary screening w/ Muppet pre-show
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“A pleasure from start to finish\, Muppet Treasure Island orchestrates people\, puppets\, shameless gags and sublimely ridiculous production numbers to wryly rework Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic kids’ tale.” – LA Weekly \n\n\n\nNo one adapts literary classics like the Muppets! Just as fun\, full of life\, and surprisingly faithful to its source material as The Muppet Christmas Carol\, Muppet Treasure Island pits Kermit the Frog’s noble Captain Smollett against a deliciously campy Tim Curry as the charming buccaneer Long John Silver\, and all your Muppet favorites are along for journey. Based on Robert Louis Stevenson’s swashbuckling tale of salty dogs and pirate’s gold\, this musical-comedy-action-adventure is packed with catchy sea shanties\, raucous comedy\, and Mr. Bimbo\, the man who lives inside Fozzie Bear’s finger. Come celebrate 30 years of high-seas hilarity with this anniversary screening! \n\n\n\nPlus\, come out early for a Muppet pre-show starting at 1:30 pm\, featuring funny moments from your favorite felt friends. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTheater Policies\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAll seats are first-come\, first-served.\n\n\n\nThe theater opens 30 minutes prior to showtime\, except for “Happy Hour” events and pre-shows when the theater opens at the listed start time.\n\n\n\nWhen a screening is sold out\, we open a waitlist 30 minutes before showtime.

SUMMARY:Homer's Odyssey as you've never seen it before... NOSTOS: THE RETURN (1989) presented by Lost in the Arthouse
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLOST IN THE ARTHOUSE is a monthly series hosted by Arkadin co-owner Keith Watson that takes you to hidden corners of filmdom far from Hollywood. From must-see classics to obscurities waiting to be discovered\, these films stand at cinema’s bleeding edge. \n\n\n\n“A poetry of lived quotidian experience that gradually becomes an epic… [Nostos] is simply beautiful. A masterpiece.” – L’Unità \n\n\n\nWhile Christopher Nolan has given us the bombastic big-budget version of The Odyssey\, Italian filmmaker Franco Piavoli’s Nostos: The Return sits at the opposite end of the cinematic spectrum\, a gorgeous\, lyrical meditation on humankind’s relationship to nature and its thirst for exploration that boils Homer’s epic down to a raw\, timeless essence. Filmed in the Mediterranean and told in an imaginary proto-language drawn from Ancient Greek\, Latin\, and Sanskrit\, Nostos transports the viewer back to the dawn of civilization\, reimagining Odysseus’s journey not as an action-adventure yarn but as a journey of the soul. Told with images of haunting power in a style Piavoli described as “symphonic” rather than the “theatrical” mode favored by conventional narrative cinema\, Nostos is\, in its transcendent beauty and cosmic scope\, just as epic as Nolan’s blockbuster version. Rarely screened in the U.S.\, this largely unknown masterpiece of world cinema is crying out for discovery. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:Palestinian comedy classic THE TIME THAT REMAINS (2009) -- fundraiser for the AlHaddad family in Gaza!
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSupport a family in Gaza and enjoy one of the all-time classics of Palestinian cinema! Wear your Pali colors and come to honor the people of Palestine and our beloved AlHaddads.  \n\n\n\n“Sharp as a knife … as close to flawless as a film can be” – Ali Abunimah\, The Electronic Intifada \n\n\n\nJoin us for a special screening of The Time That Remains\, directed by Palestinian filmmaker Elia Suleiman. The film is a semi-biographical film that follows Palestinian life from 1948 to the present day through the story of director Elia Suleiman’s family. The plot is divided into four episodes that depict the filmmaker’s father\, Fouad Suleiman\, as a resistance fighter in 1948\, the struggles of his family under Israeli military rule in the 1960s\, and finally\, Elia’s own experiences as an adolescent and adult. The film uses a comedic and surreal style to portray the daily life\, absurdities\, and humiliations of Palestinians living as a minority in their own homeland. \n\n\n\nAll proceeds from this screening will benefit the AlHaddad family in Gaza. Sameh\, Amani\, and Elien live in the north of Gaza and are struggling to survive. They have lost two infant sons (Mohammed and Wissam) and Sameh’s brother Mahmood was killed in a bombing last October. They are surviving a genocide. Between the constant presence of drones\, bombs\, shells\, gunfire\, and destruction\, there are also rats\, lack of clean water\, limited food\, disease\, extreme heat\, mosquitoes\, and near total destruction of the infrastructure and buildings.  \n\n\n\nExpenses are extremely high\, since borders are closed and Gaza is under a brutal siege. The AlHaddad family needs us to step up and help them. Wear your Pali colors and come to honor the people of Palestine and our beloved AlHaddads. \n\n\n\nThis screening is not available to book with the Club Arkadin pass. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.

SUMMARY:EARTH'S GREATEST ENEMY (2025) + virtual Q&A with director Abby Martin
DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“Captures the unfathomable breadth of ecological and human suffering caused by militarism. It covers the cost of war to the oceans\, animal and plant life\, fresh water\, and more. If someone lives in the belly of this military beast\, Earth’s Greatest Enemy should be a required watch.” – Common Dreams \n\n\n\nEarth’s Greatest Enemy\, the second feature film project by Abby Martin\, is a groundbreaking anti-imperialist environmental documentary. Exempt from international climate agreements and rarely scrutinized in mainstream reporting\, the Pentagon is the world’s single largest institutional polluter—spewing carbon\, contaminating water\, and scarring landscapes across the globe. Combining investigative journalism\, striking visuals\, and stories from impacted communities\, this film challenges audiences to rethink the hidden costs of a global military empire and its planetary consequences. Provocative\, urgent\, and eye-opening\, this is a documentary that will change how you see both the military and environmentalism. \n\n\n\nA virtual Q&A with Abby Martin will follow the screening! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nArkadin does not generally provide advisories about subject matter or potentially triggering content in films\, as sensitivities vary from person to person.
