On Wednesday, April 29th, join us at CVPA 153 at 5:00 PM for a the screening of Sofia Coppola’s acclaimed film Lost in Translation.
This is the last movie of our film series: In/Between Worlds: Expressions of Displacement in Global Cinema, where we have been featuring movies connected to cultural dislocation and displacement. Set in Tokyo, the movie follows two strangers, an aging American actor and a young woman, who find themselves adrift in a foreign city.
The screening will be introduced by Nicholas Santavicca, Associate Professor of English & Communication at the ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú. He is also the founding Director of the American Language & Cultures Institute. With over 15 years of experience teaching language education in both K–12 and higher education settings (including in the U.S., China, and Spain), Professor Santavicca specializes in rethinking assessment, curriculum design, and school policy for multilingual and multicultural students, as well as international students.
This is a wonderful opportunity to begin closing the semester by enjoying a film about human connection in a globalized world and engaging in conversation with your peers.
Come early, grab some pizza, and settle in for the movie!
