On the Film Front- Complcmcnting the performing arts program is our International Cinema series, which begins this Sunday, September 30 with Powwow Highway. Jonathan Wacks (co-producer of Repo Man) directs this modern-day road movie, which stars Gary Farmer as Philbcrt, the gentle giant in search of his warriorhood in a 1964 Buick Wildcat. His disillusioned driving companion is Buddy Red Bow (A. Martinez), the aggressive activist working to protect the interests of his Cheyenne people.

Series tickets for the International Cinema series, at a 50 percent discount, are available in advance at the UCSB Arts &. Lectures Ticket Office and at the door. Single tickets ($5 general, $3 UCSB students) may be purchased at the door only, one hour before showtime.

The second film in the series, Zu: Warriors From the Magic Mountain, Thursday, October 4, is a sword and sorcery tale set in the beautiful land of Zu. Hong Kong director Tsui Hark (Peking Opera Blues) has packed monsters, sages, ghosts, demons and wizards into the film with a bounty of imaginative motifs and mythic turns. Please note: the film’s dialogue is in Mandarin with English subtitles.
