- DescriptionNew at the Browning
In Serbian with English subtitles
In honor of International Workers' Day, this satirical companion to The Working Class Goes to Heaven will bring forward pressing concerns of labor, both in Europe and around the world. In a small Balkan town, a factory fire claims the lives of many workers touching every family in the community. Five years later and after remaining workers in the union are hit with further setbacks, solidarity between the workers flags. When a deal with management can't be struck, some workers go off-script and look to make a deal with the devil.

- May 29:30 PMFilm: "Eephus" (2024)New at the Browning Two recreational baseball teams, the River Dogs and Adler's Paint, have been meeting on their New England field on Sunday afternoons for longer than anyone can remember. These middle-aged sportsmen can't run as fast as they used to or connect as reliably with a pitch, but their vigorous appetite for socializing, squabbling, and busting chops remains undiminished. After the know-nothing county board opts to raze the baseball diamond to make way for a school, the teams meet for one final game at their beloved Soldier's Field, with girlfriends, kids, and local hooligans as intermittent spectators. As day turns to night and innings bleed together, the players face the uncertainty of a new era.Lovingly laid in a vanished Massachusetts of the mid-1990s, Carson Lund's poignant feature debut plays like a lazy afternoon, perfectly attuned to the rhythms of America's eternal pastime. Named for a rarely-deployed curveball, Eephus is both a ribald comedy for the baseball connoisseur and a movie for anyone who's ever lamented their community slipping away. GET TICKETS

- May 41:00 PMFilm: "The Last Starfighter" (1984)Professor Pfinklepfunder's $1 Sunday Family Films May the Fourth be somewhat with you. Celebrating Star Wars with a bankshot, the year of Pfinklepfunder titles closes with The Last Starfighter, which is a knock-off of Star Wars with arcade games thrown into the mix — and ultimately has much in common with Gran Turismo (2023). Regardless of its clone status, The Last Starfighter has a mighty-and-growing fanbase that gives the title serious cult status. Here, a teenager (Lance Guest) hits the top score on the arcade game Starfighter. The game's designer (Robert Preston) had secret machinations, though: Starfighter was a means for defense fighter groups to identify potential pilots for a war in space. GET TICKETS
