SEARCHING FOR THE WRONG-EYED JESUS Series: Looking Out/Looki...

Where: George Lucas Instructional Building

Date: 2007-04-13 18:30:00

Type:

Free George Lucas Instructional Building Room 108 Searching for the Wrong-Eyed Jesus will be screened followed by a discussion with Raphael C. Angulo, MSW. Refreshments will be provided. The Looking Out/Looking In series features several important classical and contemporary films viewed through the lens of social-work theory and practice. Over the past century, film is arguably the preeminent art form of our culture, reflecting our basic fears and desires, our shared myths and dreams. This series will explore social problems in an open and exciting discussion format moderated by faculty from the USC School of Social Work. Searching for the Wrong-Eyed Jesus (directed by Andrew Douglas, 2005) takes a captivating and compelling road trip through the creative and religious spirit of the South. The documentary travels to churches, prisons, biker bars and coal mines, revealing misfits, loners and a world of marginalized white people and their sometimes haunting culture. The film challenges notions of normality and allows us to enter the phenomenological world of the "outsider." In a discussion following the screening, Rafael C. Angulo will use the literature of Southern writer Flannery O' Connor to examine the characters and culture of the South and help us recognize redemption in the most unlikely people and places. Using the dynamics of film characters and plots as metaphors for both unhealthy and transforming behavior, fluid mental states and deep rooted social problems, the Looking Out/Looking In series will help the audience understand the internal world of people who seek counseling, types of group behavior and community assets and pathology to dispel myths and enlarge our understanding of the disenfranchised. Other films that will be screened during the Looking Out/Looking In series: Guess Who's Coming to Dinner: November 17, 2006 at 6:30 p.m., Lucas 108 City of God: February 9, 2007 at 6:30 p.m., Lucas 108 Organized by social-work faculty members Rafael Angulo, Mary Gress, Stephen Hydon and Jolene Swain.
