 nt Date End: 2012-05-18\n\nDirected byManoel de Oliveira. With Nicolau Nun
 es Da Silva\, Ermelinda Pires\, Maria Madalena\nPortugal 1962\, 35mm\, col
 or\, 94 min. Portuguese with English subtitles\nWhile location shooting fo
 r another film\, Oliveira stumbled upon the subject for Rite of Spring\, t
 he annual passion play enacted in a village in the same remote northern re
 gion of Portugal that would inspire Reis' most important work. Intrigued b
 y the ritualistic and incantatory qualities of the vernacular production\,
  Oliveira returned with Reis and set about directing the villagers in a re
 -enactment of the passion play\, adding a rich performative layer to the f
 ilm. A fascinating meta-ethnographic study of local tradition and history 
 that folds in on itself\, Rite of Spring climaxes unexpectedly in a furiou
 s Bruce Conner style apocalyptic montage that links Christ's death to the 
 violent lunacy of the Vietnam era.\n\nStart time: 9:30 pm
