Turtles Can Fly, the fourth and final film in the second annual International Cinema Club film series, will be shown on Friday, March 30, starting at 5:30 p.m. in Warren Enters Theatre. This award-winning film was the first film made in Iraq after the fall of Saddam Hussein. The story centers on a 13-year-old named Satellite who organizes groups of children to find and disarm unexploded land mines so the mines can be sold. The film will be introduced by Chantal Kross, an undergraduate student from Suriname, and presented by Donn Youngstrom, associate professor of theater. A question-and-answer period will follow.

"An Endangered Future: Children and Poverty” is the theme for the four films shown at Buffalo State as part of the second annual International Cinema Club during the 2011–2012 academic year. Sponsored by Project FLIGHT, the Buffalo State Equity and Campus Diversity Office, United Nations Television, and the Buffalo State Theater Department, these four films are a continuation of the spirit of Buffalo State’s well-known Anne Frank Project.
