Bozeman Film Society continues its latest season with a special screening of documentary, Borderlands Jaguar. The event will be held at Downtown Bozeman’s Ellen Theatre on Wednesday, May 13th. The film begins at 7:30pm, followed by a Q&A with Northern Jaguar Project Assistant Director Cholla Rose Duir.
From Fin & Furs Films (The American Southwest, The River and the Wall, Unbranded) comes Borderlands Jaguar. In the rugged landscapes of the American Southwest, a ghost returns. In their latest stunning documentary, Director Ben Masters and the Northern Jaguar Project team follow the elusive big cat as it quietly reclaims its place along the U.S.–Mexico border, revealing a powerful story of survival, coexistence, and hope.
Through stunning imagery and intimate storytelling, this film captures the fragile balance between wilderness and human boundaries – and the wild spirit that refuses to disappear. Rated PG, the film runs 57 minutes.
Following on Wednesday, May 27th, Steven Soderbergh’s art world drama The Christophers screens at The Ellen. The film begins at 7:30pm.
A mainstay of the London art scene since his starry breakout in the creative explosion of the 1960s, Julian Sklar (Ian McKellen) has drifted into a cluttered, self-imposed seclusion. His two estranged children (James Corden, Jessica Gunning) enlist Lori (Michaela Coel), a young painter and sometime-forger, to pose as a prospective assistant and gain access to a fabled series of unfinished canvases Julian has buried deep in his home studio, in a deceptive bid to secure an inheritance for themselves. Rated R, the film runs 100 minutes.
“With Ian McKellen in superbly crotchety form and Michaela Coel exuding chilly cunning, it’s further proof that Soderbergh remains one of American cinema’s most inimitable, and adventurous, auteurs.” – The Daily Beast
