  • Befriending Anxiety

    Anxiety serves an important function, but our nervous system doesn’t always pick the right moment or know when to stop. Each week we will look at an approach to managing anxiety, such as mindfulness-based stress reduction, cognitive behavioral therapy or polyvagal theory. We will include exercises for settling down but also for staying alert, for when we want to feel calmer, but we have things to do.

  • The Master and Margarita

    Directed by Michael Lockshin, ‘The Master and Margarita’ is an adaptation of Mikhail Bulgakov’s classic satire of Stalinist-era Soviet dictatorship. Released in Russia in January 2024, the film has both drawn large audiences and been attacked by pro-Putin Russian nationalist propagandists, who have declared the film anti-regime and called for a criminal investigation into Lockshin. The film is not commercially available outside Russia, but Lockshin will offer a private screening for the Middlebury College community. The screening will be followed by a panel discussion with the director.
