A film worth seeing at the Art Theater in Champaign (thecuart.com 
<http://thecuart.com/>) this week:

    "The Gatekeepers," featuring interviews with six heads of Israel's
    Shin Bet security organization through its history. Topics including
    the efficacy of torture, collateral damage, and the morality of
    targeted assassination.


Especially note the Monday 7:30pm showing, with discussion afterward led 
by Imad Al-Qadi.


FYI, The Gatekeepers is one of *two* feature films the Art is showing 
this week - so it's in many but not all of the usual film time slots.  
Specifically:

     3/29 Friday   4:00PM, 6:00PM
     3/30 Saturday 4:30PM, 9:30PM
     3/31 Sunday   2:00PM, 4:30PM
     4/1  Monday   7:30PM [* with Q&A after 7:30 Monday showing]
     4/2  Tuesday  7:30PM
     4/3  Wednesday 5:00PM
     4/4  Thursday 7:30PM
