Final screening:
🎥 Lord of the Flies (Peter Brook, 1963)

Based on William Golding's acclaimed novel, Lord of the Flies follows a group of schoolboys stranded on a deserted Pacific island after a plane crash. As they attempt to govern themselves, their fragile society gradually descends into fear, conflict, and savagery. Peter Brook's powerful adaptation is a gripping exploration of human nature, civilization, and the thin line between order and chaos.

Throughout the summer, we've traveled the world through film—and now we conclude with one of cinema's most thought-provoking literary adaptations.

The series is led by Ron Krieg, a lifelong film enthusiast with a collection of more than 250 DVDs, including 200 foreign films. Ron brings his passion and knowledge to each screening, making every class a rewarding experience.

Join us for this unforgettable final screening and help us close out another wonderful season of Summer World Cinema!

Many thanks for your help to keep our garden thriving! Stop in with any questions.
