Event Details

Coronado Public Library, in partnership with the Coronado Island Film Festival, presents FILM FORUM CORONADO, taking place the first and third Wednesday of each month at 6:00 p.m. in the library's Winn Room. Film expert Ralph DeLauro provides a brief introduction to each film and leads a discussion afterwards, often including pointers about how lighting or camera angles contribute to a scene’s mood or propel the story.

October 4: Polite Society (2023, 104 min)

Nida Manzoor’s debut feature is a spiky, wickedly funny, anarchic mash-up that fires on all cylinders.  Ria (Priya Kansara), a martial artist-in-training kicks into action when her sister Lena (Ritu Arya) appears ready to give up her artistic ambitions and get married. Enlisting the help of her friends, Ria hatches a series of zany schemes to save Lena from this Prince Charming.
