4:00 pm: Small Town Universe
Documentary - English
Small Town Universe paints an intimate portrait of life in Green Bank, West Virginia, home to the world's most sensitive radio telescope and the only U.S. town that bans Wi-Fi and cell phones. In this unplugged Appalachian community, scientists use the telescope to search for signs of extraterrestrial life and advance the field of radio astronomy. Interviews with residents reveal their attraction to (and challenges with) living apart from the rest of the country. When the observatory faces potential closure, it poses a threat to the community's way of life: the local economy supported by the jobs it creates, the well-being of the individuals who have sought Green Bank as a necessary health refuge, and the incalculable scientific benefits it provides to the field of astronomy.

7:30pm: Bad Shabbos
Comedy - English
Meeting the parents is already hard enough for a newly engaged couple, without throwing an accidental murder into the mix. When interfaith couple David and Meg plan to introduce their families to one another during a traditional Shabbos dinner, tensions are high from the beginning and continue to grow after an accident sends the event into complete chaos before it's even started. As David's family attempts to cover their tracks and keep the night running smoothly, secrets emerge that force the families to get to know each other better than anyone anticipated. With a daring sense of dark comedy and an ensemble of vibrant characters (played by some of the best, including Kyra Sedgwick, Catherine Curtin, and Method Man), Bad Shabbos captures the blending of families and faiths in all its awkward, messy glory.
