As part of the course Festival Economies and Ecologies, taught by Professor Kevin B. Lee, a new collaboration has been established between USI and JFC Cinema in Lugano for a series of screenings at the LUX and Iride cinemas.

The first event will take place on Wednesday, 9 April featuring The Last Showgirl by Gia Coppola, scheduled for 6 pm at Cinema LUX in Massagno. Winner of the Golden Eye Award at the Zurich Film Festival, the film tells the story of a Las Vegas showgirl who, after the sudden closure of her show after 30 years, must rethink her future. 

The screening will be introduced by a group of students from the Festival Economies and Ecologies course, led by Prof. Kevin B. Lee. 

The next screenings will take place on 16 April and 9 May with titles to be announced soon. 

See you at the cinema!
