DESCRIPTION:\n	Dir. Rok Biček. Slovenia/Austria. 2007/2017. Total runtime: 
 142 mins. In Slovenian with English subtitles. Starting with Druzina (2007
 \, 36 mins)\, a film shot when the director was in film school\, and conti
 nuing with the feature The Family (2017\, 106 mins) Slovenian filmmaker Ro
 k Biček followed the members of the Rajk family for over ten years. We mee
 t Matej at age 14\, as a young man living in a small Slovenian village who
  is isolated from his peers and struggling to manage as the only member of
  his family not living with special needs or intellectual disabilities. Ea
 ger to break free\, first he pursues internet entrepreneurship\, then beco
 mes a father himself at 20. But the past\, and the ways that it shaped him
 \, prove hard to escape. \n	\n\n\n	“Slovenian director Rok Biček started T
 he Family as a film-school student and proceeded to film a life in full: a
  boy\, Matej\, seen growing up\, watching his father die and becoming a fa
 ther himself\, breaking up with his girlfriend\, and battling her for chil
 d custody. A twist on observational cinema\, Biček’s portrait of the anti-
 heroic young man defies stereotypes of working-class and dysfunctional fam
 ilies\, refrains from passing moral judgments\, and retains an open fondne
 ss of his subject.” —Tina Poglajen\, Film Comment (The Family previously s
 creened at Film Comment Selects 2018) \n\nTickets: $15 (Free for members a
