International Film Series starts with 'Forks Over Knives' | Arts & Culture

The following is a news release from CSP:

The Central School Project is pleased to announce the films for the 2011-2012 International Film Series.

This year’s films include:

• Forks Over Knives on November 18
• Mondays in the Sun on January 13
• Maybe God is Ill on February 10
• Cave of Forgotten Dreams on March 23
• The Golden Door on May 4

On Friday, November 18, watch Forks Over Knives, the documentary feature that Roger Ebert said was “a film that can save your life”.

Despite the most advanced medical technology in the world, we are sicker than ever by nearly every measure. Heart disease, cancer and stroke are the country's three leading causes of death, even though billions are spent each year to battle these very conditions. This film examines the profound claim that most, if not all, of the degenerative diseases that afflict us can be controlled, or even reversed, by rejecting animal-based and processed foods.

The film will be shown at 7 p.m.

The International Film Series is sponsored by Cochise College in partnership with CSP.
