Please stay after each screening for a Q&A with the Filmmakers and members of the Sea Turtle Conservancy!
Having been on the planet for over a hundred million years, outliving the dinosaurs, nearly all of the seven sea turtle species are now on the brink of extinction due to human causes. The world’s smallest and most critically endangered sea turtle, the Kemp’s Ridley, may still face extinction in the next 50 years. This is the true story of courageous and compassionate people from New England to Mexico who are determined to save this ancient species.
Every year, during the bitter cold of November and December, sea turtles are stranding on the bayside beaches of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, a majority of them the Kemp’s Ridley. In 2014, a record-breaking season erupted with over a thousand sea turtles washing up cold-stunned and virtually lifeless. In a race against time, these sea turtles need to be rescued quickly or they will die.
Admission is $12 per ticket and $2 of that will be donated to the Sea Turtle Conservancy!

He goes on expeditions with scientists uncovering the reality of climate change and meets with political leaders fighting against inaction.

The Freedom To Marry is an intimate and epic documentary which goes behind-the-scenes to reveal the inner workings and key players of this historic civil rights struggle. The film follows Evan Wolfson, the man known as the architect of the movement, civil rights attorney Mary Bonauto, and their key colleagues as they wage their climactic battle before the United States Supreme Court, providing fresh perspective on the movement’s history along the way.

A Sh’mal World*
Screening at 6:15PM
A quirky social worker, Sh’mal Ellenberg, jokes about his chaotic work: helping mentally-ill drug addicts reclaim their lives in Gainesville, Florida. His clients are people like Kat, a hot-blooded women with insight into her mental illness, and Dale, a charismatic man with an unending drug addiction. Sh’mal relates to his clients and their life on the fringes of society and never loses his cool when they throw tantrums. Yet, when faced with the choice to reunite with his estranged, alcoholic, and sometimes-homeless son after a ten year disconnect, Sh’mal must come to terms with his own conflicting emotions about family, addiction and the struggle to fit into mainstream society.
13TH
Screening at 7:15PM
The Thirteenth Amendment reads as follows: “Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.” Filmed in secrecy, 13th analyzes the US prison boom and the criminalization of African Americans by focusing on the issue of race in the United States criminal justice system.

Join us at the Hipp Cinema to celebrate the 20th anniversary of PRINCESS MONONOKE with a theatrical re-release for the anime classic beginning March 3rd.
While defending his village from a demonic boar-god, the young warrior Ashitaka becomes afflicted with a curse that grants him super-human power in battle but will eventually take his life. Traveling west to find a cure or meet his destiny, he journeys deep into sacred depths of the Great Forest where he meets San (Princess Mononoke), a girl raised by wolf-gods who is waging battle against the human outpost of Iron Town, on the edge of the forest. The girl Mononoke is a force of nature – with blood smeared lips, riding bareback on a great white wolf, doing battle with both gods and humans, she is as iconic a figure as any from film, literature, or opera.
