“Divine Love” screening - Denver Film Festival

Gabriel Mascaro’s brilliant disco-dystopian drama, “Divine Love,” depicts a future consumed by an uncanny mixture of piety, eroticism and surveillance-state politics in Brazil. Join a group of scholars – including philosophers, political scientists and MSU Denver faculty members – as they explore the relationship among religion, politics, sex and the sacred in Mascaro’s provocative new film.

Screening – 4 p.m., Regal UA Denver Pavilions

Discussion – 6:45 p.m., McNichols Building

Email dphi@msudenver.edu to reserve free tickets.

Wednesday

“Zumiriki” screening – Denver Film Festival

Nietzsche famously asked his readers how they would conduct themselves if they knew their lives were going to be eternally repeated. In his second feature film, Oskar Alegría asks his audience to consider whether repetition is even possible, as he tries to repeat the past by returning to the site of his childhood memories. Join a group of philosophers and MSU Denver faculty members for a stimulating discussion of “Zumiriki” and the questions it raises about the nature of time, memory, past and place. 

Screening – 2 p.m., Regal UA Denver Pavilions

Discussion – 4 p.m., McNichols Building
