Submitted post

NAPERVILLE, IL - The Ogden 6 Theatre will be the temporary home for the After Hours Film Society while “Star Wars” plays at the Tivoli Theatre, the regular location for the film society.

A bonus AHFS film, “Phoenix,” will play at the Ogden 6, 1227 E Ogden Ave, Naperville, on Monday, Dec. 21 at 7:30 p.m. with a special $5 admission for non-members.

How do we process unimaginable betrayal? How do we overcome the kind of events that forever alter the trajectory of a life we so desperately want back? These are just two of the questions addressed by Christian Petzold’s masterful “Phoenix” (PG-13/98 min), a film that firmly cements its director as one of the most impressive working today.

In addition, the AHFS will present “Meet the Patels” at the Ogden 6 at on Monday, Jan. 11 at 7:30 p.m. Admission is $6 for students and $10 for adults. “Meet the Patels” (PG/88 min) is a documentary both directed by and starring brother and sister duo Ravi and Geeta Patel, as well as their incredibly charismatic parents. The dynamic of this colorful family of four is instantly on display, and it’s impossible not to be drawn in to their story.

The After Hours Film Society returns to its home, the Tivoli Theatre, 5021 Highland Ave, in downtown Downers Grove, on Monday, Jan. 25, with a screening of “Heart of a Dog,” Laurie Anderson’s personal essay inspired by her rat terrier, Lolabelle, who died four years ago.
