It’s the summer of 1994, and the streets of New York City are full of the sounds of hip-hop and the aroma of marijuana. But change is in the air. Newly inaugurated mayor Rudolph Giuliani is implementing his initiatives against “crimes” like noisy portable radios, graffiti, and public drunkenness. Set against this backdrop, Luke Shapiro (Josh Peck) spends his last summer before college selling dope, trading it with his shrink (Ben Kingsley) for therapy, and cruising with the doctor’s stepdaughter (Olivia Thirlby). Famke Janssen, Mary Kate Olsen, and Method Man round out the cast of this edgy, bittersweet, and funny coming-of-age story. Winner of an Audience Award at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival. Sept. 7, 9–10, 13 screening room. 101 mins.

There is a hidden society at the end of the world. One thousand men and women live together under unbelievably close quarters in Antarctica, risking their lives and sanity in search of cutting-edge science. Now, for the first time, an outsider is being admitted. In his first documentary since Grizzly Man, Werner Herzog, accompanied only by his cameraman, travels to Antarctica and is granted access to the ultimate in raw beauty and raw humanity. Herzog’s latest meditation on nature, Encounters at the End of the World, explores this land of fire, ice, and solitude. September 8, 10–12 screening room. 100 mins.
