Winter Film Series: Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes

Join us on second Sundays from January through May for our Winter Film Series. Each month we will screen a different film or documentary chosen by a librarian. After each screening, stay for discussion where we’ll explore the film’s themes, context, and relevance. Whether you're a cinephile, a curious mind, or simply looking for a cozy afternoon with good conversation, all are welcome! This month we're screening: Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes is a 2020 Japanese science fiction comedy film written by Makoto Ueda and cinematographed and directed by Junta Yamaguchi in his directorial debut. Café owner Kato (Kazunari Tosa) discovers that his computer's monitor shows what will happen two minutes into the future from the perspective of the television in the café, which itself displays what happened two minutes into the past. It's a time-travel comedy shot through with infectious energy, offering sci-fi fans a low-key -- and highly entertaining -- treat. Runtime: 71 minutes
