Independent Film Series at the Royal Oak Public Library

ROPL, Neighbor

The Royal Oak Public Library continues its Independent Film Series on Saturday, January 26 at 2:00 pm with the showing of Foreign Letters.

A 12-year-old immigrant girl from Israel is lonely until she meets a Vietnamese refugee her own age. Based on the filmmaker’s own experience, the film is a story about prejudice, poverty, shame, and the power of friendship to heal us. 99 minutes in English, Hebrew, and Vietnamese with English subtitles.

The film is appropriate for the over-18 crowd. Admission is free and a short discussion will follow the film. For more information, contact the Adult Reference Desk at 248-246-3727 or visit ropl.org.
