Belmont World Film's 24th International Film Series, "Thicker than water," explores the ties that bind—and sometimes limit us— through an intimate and far-reaching collection of stories about families in all their complexity. Across cultures and continents, these films ask what we inherit, what we carry, and what we owe one another.


The series unfolds over eight consecutive Mondays at the West Newton Cinema, at 7:00 PM. After a two-week break, the series returns in June with three additional remarkable films in recognition of World Refugee Awareness Month and Pride Month.


All of the selections were official entries at the world’s major film festivals, with several receiving top honors. The films span four continents and feature ten different languages, including Arabic, Armenian, Greek, Darija, Dutch, French, Greek, Greenlandic, Quechua, Spanish, and Ukrainian—reflecting the many voices and vantage points that shape our shared human story.


In Enzo, a riveting drama set along the breathtaking coast of the South of France, a 16-year-old boy defies his bourgeois family’s expectations by starting a masonry apprenticeship. There he meets a charismatic Ukrainian colleague who shakes up his world. Premiered at the Director's Fortnight at the Cannes Film Festival, and written and partially directed by Laurent Cantet (The Workshop, BWF 2018), who died before being able to finish.


Followed by a discussion led by Marjorie Salvodon, Professor of History, Language & Global Culture and Associate Dean of Experiential Learning, Global Education & Public Impact at Suffolk University, who teaches a class called "Global Challenges on Film."


This Linda Plaut Festival of the Arts program is supported by Spark Newton in partnership with The City of Newton.
