The reception begins at 6:30 p.m., with festival regular, Kathy Housby (formerly with Kilgore College's public radio station, KTPB) offering a brief introduction to the festival immediately before the film.
The 2008 Spring Festival offers a wide array of features, including the first animated film to be included in the series, "Persepolis.''
Other highlights include this year's Academy Award winner for Best Foreign Language Film, "The Counterfeiters,'' Julian Schnabel's acclaimed "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly,'' and "In Bruges,'' which was the opening night film at the 2008 Sundance Film Festival.
