Art Science Cultural Outing - Denver Film Festival: The Infiltrators
Details
In November, we will enjoy one of the many films being presented during the 2019 Denver Film Festival. Come enjoy a showing of The Infiltrators, a 95 minute experimental documentary that tells about the Broward Transitional Center, a shadowy, Florida, for-profit ICE detention facility that houses undocumented immigrants for months—and sometimes years—without due process. During a time when immigrant families are being separated, this documentary will provide a better understanding of the hardships faced by immigrants and political refugees who seek to restart their lives in the United States, and find a place less welcome than they had hoped.
Find our more about this movie and get tickets at https://secure.denverfilm.org/tickets/film.aspx?id=31284&fid=105
TO ENSURE YOUR SEATS, be sure to purchase your tickets online in advance.
We will meet in the Lobby of the UA Pavilions Theatre. Look for Matthew Elisha, who will be wearing a Jefferson Humanists ballcap.
PLEASE RSVP TO THIS MEETUP OR BY EMAIL (president@jeffersonhumanists.org) SO WE CAN SAVE ENOUGH SEATS TOGETHER.
For those who would like to catch some dinner before the movie, we plan on going to the Appaloosa Grill at 535 16th Street, right across from the UA Pavillions. We will meet at 5 pm at the restaurant. Please email Matthew to let him know you will be attending the dinner, so we can reserve a table with enough seats.

The AHA's states that humanism is "informed by science, inspired by art" and that "values...have their source in human experience and culture." With that in mind, the Jefferson Humanists have decided to start a new monthly program.
Each month, we will enjoy a local cultural, arts or science event with our fellow humanists. We might go to a movie or play, attend a science lecture or museum exhibit, take in a festival, examine art galleries or listen to an author talk about their new book. Keep your eye on Meetup to see what is coming up for 2019!
"The Infiltrators is unflinching yet entertaining storytelling and couldn't be timelier in this oppressive age of Trumpism."
