Screening

Below is the program for the evening of Saturday August 26th, 2017.

This week we say farewell to “Bernard Jou Iwaku” (aka “Miss Bernard Speaks”). We currently do not have plans to replaces this 5 minute long show. New suggestions will be welcome. We hope you have enjoyed this little show and have been inspired to read a bit more.
We have this week a preview episode of an anime from last season that lets you be Queen for a day, and a youth romance movie. The movie is actually a bit short, so we will make up the time with a second episode of the dark “Re:Creators”.
