Monday 2/29
Mindful Movies: Waking Life (FILM) at The Roxy Theater
4:30PM
Description: The Roxy Theater is pleased to bring you Mindful Movies, a continued series of films that make us aware of our thoughts, emotions and our experiences. Waking Life:
Transcending the boundaries of technology and imagination, “Waking Life” is a revolutionary breakthrough in film animation. In “Waking Life,” Wiley Wiggins (“Dazed and Confused”) travels through a series of encounters and observations in a world that may or may not be reality. It is this surreal existence, flourishing with endless ideas and possibilities, that ultimately leads to the question — Are we sleep-walking through our waking state or wake-walking through our dreams?
