>Bonjour!
> Just a reminder, this month's main feature at Coffee Depot is
> entitled "Raja l'Africaine," by Jacques Doillon. "Raja (Najat
> Benssallem), a 19-year-old orphan living on the streets in Morocco,
> lands a job working in the garden of a wealthy, middle-aged
> Frenchman, Fred (Pascal Greggory). Fred is quickly smitten with the
> plucky girl, who's initially suspicious of his intentions. Although
> a guarded mutual interest develops, their potential romance may be
> stymied by a web of manipulation, as well as the cultural, economic
> and generational rift between the pair..." This film will be our
> main feature of the night on WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 16TH @ 7:00 PM at
> the Coffee Depot in Downtown Riverside, CA. In addition, for those
> of you who can't make the early show, or who find that just one
> film is not enough, grab another cup of coffee and stay/come to see
> our second feature of the night: Yves Angelo's adaptation of
> Balzac's novella "Colonel Chabert" at 9:00 pm (done by 11pm). As
> always we thank you for your continual support, and know that you
> will make our double-features a success! Hope to see you all on Wednesday.
