    Four Days in September  (1997) Dir: Bruno Barreto. This tense and understated drama tells the story of the 1969 kidnapping of the U.S. ambassador to Brazil, Charles Burke Elbrick, by left-wing revolutionaries. Encounters between the kidnappers and Elbrick reveal the stuggle between commtiment and conscience in men caught up in violent circumstances. Oscar nominee for Best Foreign Language Film. English and Portguese with English subtitles. Rated R. 105 minutes. Presented by: The Center for Latin American Studies; facilitator, Mario Higa, Lecturer, Department of Spanish & Portugese Brazil.

    International Lens, a film series with a global perspective, uses film screenings as a forum to promote conversation among Vanderbilt’s diverse community of students, faculty and staff. International Lens strives to transcend geographic, ethnic, religious, linguistic and political boundaries by facilitating conversation and greater cross-cultural understanding through cinema. The series is a partnership between the Office of the Dean of Students and academic departments, centers and programs.
