This evening takes you from the passion of the fútbol field to alien invasion.

Argentina Fútbol Club offers an entertaining and informative portrait of soccer madness in Argentina by examining the unique identity and relationship between Argentines and their beloved soccer teams: Boca Juniors and River Plate. With its unprecedented interviews, cultural insights, and historical approach to understanding the phenomenon that is fútbol, this documentary will be irresistible to sports fans and curious moviegoers alike. (83 mins., video)

A cult classic waiting to be discovered, Planet of the Female Invaders sees seductive female space aliens from the planet Sibila attempt to take over Earth. But in order to breathe in our atmosphere, they must harvest human lungs to make breathing adaptors. So an exploratory team of alien femmes heads to Earth to collect human specimens. And how do they do this? By disguising their spacecraft as an amusement park ride and luring in giggling carnival-goers, of course! The proceedings only get more preposterous. Print provided by Filmoteca de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México.(85 mins., 35mm)

Planet of the Female Invaders begins at 8:35 PM.
