Eyes Wide Open Film Series, 2017-18 season

The USC4P&J documentary films series, Eyes Wide Open, has run for 20 semester-long seasons, offering a series of politically and socially engaged films on alternate Thursdays, beginning mid-October and running through mid-June.

Films, in English, have been shown at the Circolo Arci Arcobaleno (via Pullino, 1, metro Garbatella - see map and directions), and have been followed by discussions.

On December 14th we screened the last film of our "Eyes Wide Open" Film Series, at least for now. Attendance has been dwindling and marketing efforts do not seem to have worked. So it's back to the drawing board to figure out how to better advance our core mission: helping people become more aware of the political and social issues that Mainstream Media whitewashes or ignores -- especially U.S. military intervention in other countries and its disasterous consequences, destroying lives and homes, ravaging the planet, bringing greater misery (not democracy) to the downtrodden and causing (not preventing) terrorism.

When we come up with a better idea for raising consciousness than the kind of film series we've run so far, we'll get back to you.

To those who have participated in our series over the years and have helped to plan and run it, many thanks.

Special thanks to the Circolo Arci Arcobaleno for their hospitality and support.
