The Language House International Film Series presents films selected by Language House students representing their target languages and cultures. This year, the theme of the series is "Social Inequities," reflecting the theme of the UMD First Year Book. Please join us on November 21 at 5pm in the International Film Lounge (0107 St. Mary's Hall) for a screening of the film "万引き家族" (“Shoplifters”), presented by the Japanese cluster. Everyone is welcome!
Film Synopsis: On the margins of Tokyo, a dysfunctional band of outsiders are united by fierce loyalty, a penchant for petty theft and playful grifting. When the young son is arrested, secrets are exposed that upend their tenuous, below-the-radar existence and test their quietly radical belief that it is love—not blood—that defines a family.
