Imagine a first-contact movie where the stakes aren't about surviving a war, but surviving our own instinct to destroy what we don't understand. _Arrival_ (adapted from Ted Chiang's "Story of Your Life") is a masterclass in intellectual sci-fi. Instead of lasers, Dr. Louise Banks uses grammar and syntax to save the world. It’s a quiet, visually stunning, and emotionally devastating masterpiece that proves language might just be the most powerful tool we have. If you haven't seen it yet, prepare to look at time and memory completely differently.
URBAN WASTELAND LOCATION (ACTUALLY ALONG THE RIVER MORE LIKE AN OASIS): from downtown, head south on Soquel Avenue. At Riverside, by the Royal Taj, turn right. Follow the path down to the Sandy area under the bridge.
NOTE: let's take care of the spot and pack it in pack it out. When the film is over please be respectful of the neighbors when leaving and use library voices.
PLUS thrilling short films, an intermission, great company, and a guaranteed good time!
BRING blankets, pillows, anything you need to be comfortable (consider a low folding chair that does not block others from seeing the screen), friends, snacks, snacks to share. Donations to support the project are more than welcome but no one turned away for lack of funds (NOTAFLOF for real!).
SANTA CRUZ GUERILLA DRIVE-IN is an outdoor movie theater under the stars that springs up in the fields and industrial wastelands. Beyond showing great free movies and bring a broad community together, part of our mission is helping reclaim public space and transforming our urban environment
