Dear All,

Due to the high chance of rain tomorrow, we have decided to postpone the BBQ
until next *Sunday, May 11th*.

I really hope you will all still be able to make it!  Hopefully next Sunday the
sun will decide to shine on a beautiful Mother's Day.

All the best,
Zeina

  LIVE IN THE KENNEDY SCHOOL FORUM

  COME WATCH THE MOST CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED LEBANESE MOVIE OF ALL TIME

  CELEBRATE THE END OF THE SEMESTER IN GLAMOUR
  WHILE INDULGING IN POPCORN AND ICE CREAM

Date: Thursday, May 8th
Time: 7pm
Location:  Kennedy School Building - 79 JFK Street


CARAMEL HAS SET A BENCHMARK FOR ARABIC MOVIES AS IT WAS POSSIBLY
ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL MOVIES FROM THE ARAB WORLD IN HISTORY. THE
FILM PREMIERED AT THE 2007 CANNES  FILM FESTIVAL, IN THE DIRECTORS'
FORTNIGHT SECTION. IT RAN FOR THE CAM?RA D'OR BECOMING THE MOST
INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED AND EXPOSED LEBANESE FILM TO DATE.

IT IS THE ONLY LEBANESE FILM THAT DOES NOT TALK ABOUT WAR, BUT IT
TALKS ABOUT THE LIVES OF 5 ORDINARY LEBANESE WOMEN TACKLING
'FORBIDDEN LOVE, BINDING TRADITIONS, REPRESSED SEXUALITY, THE
STRUGGLE TO ACCEPT THE NATURAL PROCESS OF AGE, AND DUTY VS. DESIRE'.

IT IS A FANTASTIC MOVIE AND IT DOES SUCH A GREAT JOB OF EXPOSING
PARTS OF OUR CULTURE THAT NOBODY SEES THROUGH THE NEWS.
