Tuesday, March 11 2025, 5:30 - 8:30pm Ciné, 234 W. Hancock Avenue Women's History Month Join Anna Stenport, professor of communication studies with an appointment in the Institute for Women's and Gender Studies and dean of the Franklin College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Georgia, for a screening and conversation about one of the most influential feminist films of the late 1960s and 1970s, Swedish director Mai Zetterling’s The Girls (Flickorna, 1968). A masterpiece of modernist art cinema, The Girls is a visually stunning, narratively complex, comedically paced, and compellingly acted film that questions gender roles and blurs boundaries between film, fiction, and life. The program features a brief introduction to the film by Dr. Stenport, the screening (100 min; film is sub-titled in English), and conversation. The event, part of the 2025 UGA Humanities Festival, is free and open to the public; students and the university community are warmly welcomed.
