MUBI Fest
The international MUBI Fest is back in Chicago on Saturday, April 26 and Sunday, April 27, with a weekend-long celebration of cinema featuring a curated selection of films as well as Q&As, workshops, installations, and live music—all taking place at Music Box Theatre and The Salt Shed. Among this year’s big-screen lineup is a special screening and Q&A of Alex Ross Perry’s Pavements—a faux documentary about the real band of the same name—as well as Amalia Ulman’s Magic Farm, Brian De Palma’s Blow Out, Paul Thomas Anderson’s Inherent Vice and Elaine May’s Ishtar. On Sunday, an open-air Mubi Market will take over The Salt Shed's Fairgrounds with local food-and-drink vendors, a record-store pop-up shop, games, giveaways, and more.
