Just keep in mind that “Hollywood isn’t in the business of telling true stories”, and some have criticized the film as being “oblivious to Iraqi suffering”.

Also, star actress of the movie, Kata Mara later joined the Humane Society in delivering close to 200,000 petition signatures to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, urging the agency to restore online records of inspections and violations of the federal Animal Welfare Act and Horse Protection Act after it had suddenly purged many records.

The screening is free and open to the public. and doors open at 10:00 AM. Movie begins at 10:30 AM. Snacks will be available during the film.
