Foreign Film Friday: “Men at Work”

(2006, 1h15m, Iran, satirical comedy by Mani Haghighi)

Classic movies from around the world every Friday at 7!

Returning from a failed skiing trip, four middle-aged, middle-class friends spot an enormous, strangely shaped rock protruding from a cliffside. They casually decide to try and push it over the edge. What starts as a silly joke turns into an obsessive, day-long mission that tests their friendships and exposes deep-seated personal frustrations. Best Film at the Traverse City Film Festival and Best Screenplay at the Fajr International Film Festival.

Donation-based admission. Light refreshments available.

Centrally located just off I-240 Exit 8; River Ridge Business Center, Suite 1200, 802 Fairview Rd, Asheville 28803 (behind Hamrick’s and Sun Soo Martial Arts, next to Hot Yoga Asheville and Asheville Dance Theater)
