Based on the acclaimed semi-autobiographical novel, Miral is the story of a Palestinian girl coming of age amidst the war zone of the Israeli-Arab conflict - unflinchinly told through the perspective of Miral (Freida Pinto, Slumdog Millionaire) herself. Following the death of her troubled mother, Miral's father (Alexander Siddig) is forced to entrust her to the orphanage of Hind Husseini (Hiam Abbass), a woman whose commitment to peace through education has a profound impact on the maturing young woman as her epic journey to self-esteem and social consciousness proves both harrowing and hopeful.
Join us for Art & Film, a new collaborative film series presented by Pentangle Arts and the Hall Art Foundation — where cinema meets visual art to spark dialogue, deepen understanding, and celebrate creative expression.
The third Wednesday of every month, we collaborate to bring Art & Film to our community.
Following the screening, stay for an engaging post-film discussion and drinks in the lobby, and the power of art to bring people together. Whether you're an art lover, film buff, or curious mind, come share the experience of how stories behind the art can inspire conversations — just like walking through a gallery.
Each pass gets you admission to all of our monthly Art in Film screenings, 4 general admission Pentangle tickets to other feature films of your choice, a Pentangle coffee mug and tote bag, a Hall Art Foundation publication of your choice, and 2 tickets to visit the Hall Art Foundation in Reading, Vermont for a self-guided visit of the exhibitions and grounds
