Join your host Maura McAndrew for a free screening of John Sayles’s sci-fi cult classic The Brother from Another Planet (1984), a film about an alien, Harlem, and the immigrant experience in America. From the AV Club, “Sayles shapes a catchy premise into a subtler piece, using [lead actor Joe] Mortons ‘alien’ status as a way of asking who deserves to be called an outsider in a country born of outsiders.”

As always, Maura will provide background, production, and cultural notes to augment your viewing experience.
