No One Knows about Persian Cats - Film Coming to Bismarck!

The 2009-10 Campus Read was Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi.

In April 2010, the Campus Read Committee invited Roxana Saberi to our campus. Saberi grew up in Fargo, is an Iranian-American journalist and former Miss North Dakota, and was held as a political prisoner in Tehran, Iran, for several months. She is also the author of a memoir, Between Two Worlds: My Life and Capitivity in Iran, and co-wrote the screenplay for an award-winning Iranian film, No One Knows about Persian Cats.

You have a chance to see this film! The Cinema 100 Film Society will be showing it at the Grand Theatres on Thursday, February 10, at 3 p.m. and 5:30 p.m.

Check out the trailer on Cinema 100's Facebook page.
