Join us for another film in our continuing series dedicated to stories by women and of women. We are wrapping up the semester with The Worst Person in the World (Joachim Trier, 2021), a film that subverts the notion of a romantic-comedy while residing within its confines. Like always, we will book-end the film with a (hopefully) lively discussion. Cinephiles and just plain movie-lovers are all invited. Even if its just for the free popcorn, come watch with with us!

Kick off Poetry Week at the MIIS Poetry Box! Join us to listen to poetry and write your own poem in front of the library at 12:00pm on Monday, April 24th. For more information, please email Rana Issa (rissa@middlebury.edu) or Hannah Ritchey (hritchey@middlebury.edu).

Are you fan of coming-of-age films set in early-2000’s Sacramento? Do you appreciate the acting prowess of Saoirse Ronan, or Timothee Chalamet’s cheekbones? If yes is the answer to any of these questions, then please join us for an Alba Film Society screening of Greta Gerwig’s Lady Bird. There will be a discussion following the film. We would love to have you!

What does communication have to do with the body? Join us at the library for this book conversation with Andrea Olsen and Institute colleagues. Olsen is Middlebury faculty emeritus who taught at the Institute over a span of five years in the Department of Development, Practice, and Policy.* One major result of her time at MIIS was the creation of her latest book, Moving Between Worlds: A Guide to Embodied Living and Communicating with co-authored chapters and anecdotes involving MIIS/Middlebury faculty, students, and staff.
