"I'm going to tell you a story and it's true... I
always have to tell people that," so asserts comedian-
turned-playwright-turned-filmmaker Mike Birbiglia in his
autobiographically inspired, fictional feature debut. We
are thrust into the tale of a burgeoning stand-up comedian
struggling with the stress of a stalled career, a stale
relationship threatening to race out of his control, and the wild spurts of severe
sleepwalking he is desperate to ignore. Based on the successful one-man
show, the film engages in the kind of passionate and personal storytelling that
transfigures intimate anguish into comic art. (2K DCP. 90 min. Rated NR.)

Sunday - September 23 - 3:00 p.m.
A history of violence and oppression threatens to engulf the residents of an
affluent seaside community in Neighboring Sounds, a thrilling debut from
filmmaker Kleber Mendonca Filho. A palpable sense of unease hangs over a
single city block in the coastal town of Recife, Brazil. Home to prosperous
families and the servants who work for them, the area is ruled by an aging
patriarch and his sons. When a private security firm is reluctantly brought
in to protect the residents from a recent spate of petty crime, it unleashes
the fears, anxieties and resentments of a divided society still haunted by
its troubled past. Portuguese language with English subtitles. (35mm.
131 min. Not rated.)
Director Kleber Mendonça Filho is scheduled to be
present on September 18.
