TWO PROSECUTORS
Sergei Loznitsa
- 118 minutes
- 2026
- Russian and Ukrainian with English Subtitles
April 3 - 5
Summoned with a blood-written note smuggled out of a prison block, an idealistic state lawyer (Alexander Kuznetsov) pushes past the prison's leery authorities to interview an elderly, broken-down Bolshevik (Aleksandr Filippenko). The young attorney, determined to expose the miscarriages of justice that landed the man in confinement, finds the eye of the state turned on him instead, as an ever-tightening net encircles his investigation. Set at the height of the great purge and drenched in the paranoia of Stalin’s police state, filmmaker Sergei Loznitsa’s latest triumph is a chilling and darkly humorous, Kafkaesque thriller about the impunity of power and matter-of-fact horrors of fascism.

Christian Petzold
- 86 minutes
- 2026
- German with English Subtitles
April 10 - 12
During a weekend trip to the countryside, Laura, a young piano student from Berlin, miraculously survives a shocking car crash. Awakening in a nearby house, Laura finds herself in the care of a local woman, who tends to her with motherly devotion. As she recuperates, Laura begins to integrate herself into the lives of the woman and her initially reluctant husband and son. By turns haunted and hopeful, Laura and her adopted family reawaken to the world and come to find a strange harmony together. However, they cannot outrun the ghosts of the past, which begin to stir, as acclaimed director Christian Petzold (PHOENIX, TRANSIT) spins a modern gothic fairytale about the lies we tell ourselves and the strange ways that grief, connection, and humanity bind and sustain us. A hushed, enigmatic psychodrama, MIROIRS NO. simmers with mystery and mood as Paula Beer's transfixing performance anchors its exploration of fractured identity.

Photographed in sterling, sensuous black-and-white, François Ozon’s new take on Albert Camus’s classic novel of existentialist ennui is a landmark of adaptation, simultaneously faithful to the text and dedicated to discovering fresh perspectives in the margins. Meursault (Benjamin Voisin) works as a clerk at an office in Algiers during the French colonial occupation. Meursault finds his routine upended by the sudden death of his mother. As Meursault gets swept up in a cycle of escalating reprisals among his neighbors, tensions come to a head with a fateful encounter on the beach.

SMOKESCREEN: Debunking Wildfire Myths to Save Our Forests and Climate
FREE EVENT! Earth Day April 22
Earth Day Event — Dr. Chad Hanson Talk and Visual Presentation: Protecting Communities from Wildfires — It's Not About Logging Remote Forests
For decades, the U.S. Forest Service has been conducting large logging projects on public lands, telling the public that these mechanical thinning and post-fire logging timber sales will curb and stop wildfires so they will not reach towns. But several major wildfire tragedies and a lot of new science over the past decade have shown the Forest Service's approach to be not just misguided and ineffective, but counter-productive and dangerous. Dr. Chad Hanson, wildfire scientist with the John Muir Project and author of the book "Smokescreen" will discuss why the focus of the Forest Service and Congress on logging mature and old trees, and post-fire clearcutting, in forest wildlands is putting communities at greater risk. Dr. Hanson will describe a different path forward, one that will be far better for forest ecosystems, and will help save homes and lives from wildfires.
Free admission, donations accepted. Q&A to follow talk. Presented by John Muir Project, Plumas Forest Project and Feather River Action!
