Film festival gives new meaning to worldly entertainment
By Will Augerot | April 18French and Arabic cultures will intersect on film this weekend in a series of N.C. premieres that organizers say students are unlikely to have a chance to see again. This weekend the Nelson Mandela Auditorium will host "Franco-Arabic Cultures Today," a conference involving lectures and feature films to be screened at the FedEx Global Education Center. The films will be shown from 7:45 p.m. to 11 p.m. today and from 7:30 p.m. to 11 p.m. Saturday. These films deal with people originating from a region known as the Maghreb, the western part of north Africa.
