Undeterred by armed soldiers, evasive politicians, and riot police, journalist Amy Goodman has reported some of the most consequential stories of our time. Steal This Story, Please! is a gripping portrait of the trailblazer whose unwavering commitment to truth-telling spans three decades of turbulent history. From the frontlines of global conflicts to the organized chaos of her daily news show Democracy Now!, Goodman broadcasts stories and voices routinely silenced by commercial media.
Oscar-nominated filmmakers Carl Deal and Tia Lessin (Trouble the Water, The Janes) take us behind the scenes with the warm, wisecracking granddaughter of an Orthodox rabbi — raised in a tradition of asking hard questions – as she navigates a news landscape reshaped by technology, corporate consolidation, and political assaults on the press – and on truth itself. Urgent, provocative and unexpectedly funny, Steal This Story, Please! is both a call to action and a celebration of resistance, posing the question: what happens to democracy when the press surrenders to power?

It is the Spring of 1945 on the German island of Amrum, a remote outpost in the North Sea. The front is far away, and 12-year-old Nanning (newcomer Jasper Billerbeck) spends his days working the nearby farm and his nights fishing, helping his mother to feed their family. Despite the hardship, life on the beautiful, windswept isle seems idyllic. When their anti-fascist neighbor Tessa (Diane Kruger) mentions to Nanning that the war will soon be over, the boy – too young to understand the political implications – is pleased to imagine that his father, a Nazi officer, might soon be coming home. But his mother Hille (Laura Tonke) is a true believer, and word of Germany’s imminent defeat sends her into decline. One day from her sick bed, she wishes for white bread, butter and honey, near impossible luxuries on Amrum which Nanning innocently tries to find for her. But as he sets off on his quest, he learns from his neighbors that the enemy is far closer than he imagined. (Fatih Akin, 2025, Germany, 1:33, NR)

Joe Jennings, an innovator in the world of skydiving, has spent decades capturing breathtaking aerial moments with his camera for extreme sports competitions, Super Bowl commercials, and Hollywood blockbusters. Driven by a passion for “camera flying” in his youth, Joe cultivated a deep friendship with fellow skydiver Rob Harris, partnering to become one of the most influential skysurfing teams in history. Flying at the top of their game, Joe’s world was shattered when tragedy struck, leaving him to navigate the skies alone. Never giving up, he continued to push the boundaries of aerial cinematography and skydiving, finding solace in the clouds while grappling with profound grief and depression. Now, at 62, this pioneering skydiver is taking on a new challenge, elevating his art with a daring “flying car” stunt. Directors Marah Strauch (SUNSHINE SUPERMAN) and Bryce Leavitt delve into Joe’s extraordinary 40-year career in the sky. Through stunning archival footage, revealing interviews, and dramatic verité, they uncover a deeper emotional journey as Joe navigates loss, depression, and the challenge of balancing a life in the sky with the realities on the ground.

Science on Screen®: Like Water for Chocolate Food, Emotion, and the Science of Nourishment
2026-06-01 18:00 - 20:30 | Boedecker Theater, Walnut Street, Boulder, CO, 80302, United States
TICKETS

Before the screening of Like Water for Chocolate, Carmen Pacheco will explore how food carries emotion, memory, culture, and identity while also serving as a fascinating lens into science and engineering. Through stories and examples from Mexican cuisine, chocolate making, flavor development, heat transfer, emulsions, and sensory science, the talk will examine how nourishment extends far beyond nutrition and connects deeply to human experience.

The film shows us that cooking is not only chemistry and heat transfer. Food also carries memory, culture, identity, resistance, and emotion. Mole, chocolate, and salsa become both scientific and human transformations.
Additional Details

Join us at 5:30 PM to enjoy the Dairy’s current exhibition, Set the Table: The Art of Nourishment (open daily from 12 PM) with a limited tasting of fresh salsa and Oaxacan mole provided by Carmen Pacheco.

Croatia’s official entry for Best International Feature Film at the 98th Academy Awards.
Bezinović’s inventive hybrid film is a defiantly punk direct-action history lesson, deadly serious yet hilariously surreal. In 1919, the Italian poet, dandy, and glorifier of war Gabriele D’Annunzio occupied the city of Fiume.
The citizens of Fiume (now Croatia’s Rijeka) retell and reinterpret the 16-month occupation of their city, regarded as one of the most bizarre military sieges of all time. Incensed that the city — long part of the now-dissolved Austro-Hungarian Empire, would be ceded to the newly formed Kingdom of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (later Yugoslavia) despite its large Italian population — D’Annunzio gathered a few thousand troops and invaded, intending to annex the city to Italy.
Italy wanted no part of this folly, and after 15 months, D’Annunzio and his forces retreated. A century later, Bezinović recruits hundreds of Rijeka locals to recreate scenes from the siege on the streets and in the buildings where events occurred. (Igor Bezinovic, 2025, Croatia, 1:52, NR)

Donghwa is a fledgling poet in his thirties. He rejects material aspirations and seeks to lead a life dedicated to truth and beauty. On a lazy afternoon, he drives his girlfriend, Junhee, back to her parents’ home outside Seoul. In the driveway, they run into her father, who is strangely interested in Donghwa’s dinged up old car. He takes it for a spin around the block, then invites Donghwa to stay and meet the family: him, his wife, who also writes poetry, and Junhee’s reclusive sister, who practices the gayageum, a traditional string instrument. They end up wiling away the day together, visiting a temple by the river, climbing the hill near the house, watching the sunset, and, sure enough, imbibing drinks. Egged on by Junhee’s dad, Donghwa gets progressively more drunk as the day advances. Finally, he makes a fool of himself at dinner. Then everything begins to unravel for the poet: his relationship, his art, his revolutionary ideals. (Hong Sang-soo, 2025, South Korea, 1:48, NR)

In a tight-knit Dominican American community in The Bronx, Rico (Juan Collado) is hustling his way through the summer, selling bootleg ”nutcracker” cocktails out of a beach cooler and chasing girls without a care in the world. But when his teenage girlfriend, Destiny (Destiny Checo), begins crashing at his place with his family, turning their small apartment into a stage for their messy, complicated young love, it’s only a matter of time before they’re hit with the sobering reality of growing up too fast in a city that waits for no one.
Writer-director Joel Alfonso Vargas turns his hometown into the heartbeat of his debut feature, teaming up with discovery talent Collado and Checo, to deliver a raw and deeply authentic look at life in The Bronx.

The morning in Glasgow, the first day of Eid, started as any other. However, when neighbors heard through community message networks that two local men were snatched up for deportation, hundreds of people left their daily lives to rush down to Kenmure Street and put their bodies on the line. Though mostly strangers and with almost no planning, this extremely diverse group organized themselves, taking on essential roles to allow the collective to achieve their goal: protecting their own from government forces going after the most vulnerable among them.
An inspiring and profoundly moving portrait of what “normal” citizens are capable of in the face of injustice, EVERYBODY TO KENMURE STREET reminds us of the power that is always inherent in the people. (Felipe Bustos Sierra, 2026, UK, 1:35, NR)

A film director gathers his favorite actresses, those he worked with and those he loved. He wants to make a film about women but he doesn’t reveal much: he observes them, takes cue, until his imaginary throw them into another era, in a past where the noise of the sewing machines fills a workplace handled and populated by women, where men have minor and marginal roles and cinema can be told from another point of view: the one of costume. Between loneliness, passions, anxieties, heartbreaking absence and unbreakable bonds, reality and fiction permeate, as well as the lives of the actresses and those of the characters, the competition and the sisterhood, the visible and the invisible.
