CF Ira Holmes International Film Series to host screening, clothing drive for students

The Ira Holmes International Film Series at the College of Central Florida will host two screenings of “Some Kind of Heaven” on Feb. 25.

In addition to inviting viewers behind the scenes of the utopia that is The Villages – America’s largest retirement community situated just south of Ocala – in this 2020 documentary by Lance Oppenheim, the college is encouraging attendees to donate gently used professional attire to the CF Clothing Closet.

“Whether they are preparing for an interview or stepping into a new role, there are CF students who need our help to dress for success,” said Wendy Adams, CF Humanities professor and film series director. “The CF Clothing Closet empowers students in need to look and feel their best, and we’ll have a special giveaway drawing for those who bring a donation.”

Films will be shown at 2 p.m. at the Appleton Museum of Art, 4333 E. Silver Springs Blvd., and at 7 p.m. at the CF Ocala Campus, 3001 S.W. College Road, Building 8, Room 110. Films at the Ocala Campus are free and open to the public. Films at the Appleton are free to all museum and film series members; nonmembers pay museum admission. Films may contain mature content.
