"They say that travel broadens your mind...this project wants to make the viewer see life from a different perspective." We're so excited to host the first screening of "Wild, Wild East", a documentary photo project from collaborating international photographers Jennifer Janowski and Christian Pirskanen, who are German/Polish and Finnish respectively. According to their site, "The project deals with ordinary everyday life, people and cultures in Eastern Europe and the Balkans. It is based on the photographers' three-month backpacking trip, starting from Ukraine and ending in Kosovo." According to the film's creators, the people of this special region live a very different life from the rest of Europe. The photographer carefully captures the atmosphere, cultures, and people, celebrating and exploring the joys and sorrows of local daily life.

Based on the book If It’s Not Impossible…: The Life of Sir Nicholas Winton by Barbara Winton, ONE LIFE tells the incredible, emotional true story of Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton (Flynn), a young London broker who visits Prague in December 1938.
