The Hispanic Film Series offered by the Missouri S&T arts, languages, and philosophy department will conclude this April with a viewing of the 2016 Brazilian drama “Don’t Call Me Son.”
The screening, which is free and open to the public, begins at 7 p.m. Thursday, April 26, in Room 199 Toomey Hall on the Missouri S&T campus. The film will be screened in Spanish with English subtitles.
“Don’t Call Me Son,” directed by Anna Muylaert, follows the journey of 17-year-old Pierre as he deals with puberty, goes to parties, tries on women’s clothes, and learns that the woman he believed to be his mother actually kidnapped him from the hospital as a newborn. Pierre, or Felipe, must adjust to his biological family and learning that the life he has lived has been based on a lie.
This is the final film in the spring 2018 Hispanic Film Series.
