The Oklahoma City University Film Institute’s series will continue with Jean-Pierre and Luc Dardenne’s “The Kid with a Bike.” Admission to all films in the series is free. The series is supported in part by the Thatcher Hoffman Smith Endowment Fund and endowments through OCU and the Oklahoma City Community Foundation. Winner of the Grand Jury Prize at this year's Cannes Film Festival, this deeply moving French-language film by a pair of brother directors delves into the emotional life of troubled 11-year-old Cyril, showing once again their ability to chart the wilds of childhood. This film’s screening is timed to connect with the speech of Children’s Defense Fund leader Marian Wright Edelman, who will talk on campus in the OCU Distinguished Speaker Series event on March 4. |
