Kwanaksa Movie Showing: Hedwig, on Friday, December 19th

Dec 19, 2008

‘The 21st Student Council of Kwanaksa’ has been showing movies as a monthly event to enhance the culture lives of dormitory students. This month’s movie will be ‘Hedwig and the Angry Inch’, a rock musical film based on the stage musical of the same title about a fictional rock and roll band. It is a renowned movie with numerous numbers of awards.

Coming soon on December 19th 8 p.m.

At the KwanaksaRecreationCenter(Bldg #910 2nd floor)


Already the winner of numerous awards including the Audience and Director awards at Sundance, this is the film of an original stage musical comedy that played off Broadway for over two years. It centers on Hedwig, whose only way of escaping from East Berlinis to undergo a sex-change and assume his mother's identity. Unfortunately the operation goes wrong and he is left with an ‘angry inch’. Escaping to America, he forms a rock band whilst seeking the soul partner that will fulfill his destiny. Loaded with songs that you will be humming all the way out of the building, Hedwig and the Angry Inch is the funniest, most outrageously entertaining movie of its kind since Rocky Horror.

We will be offering free drinks, snacks and popcorns to all movie viewers, so we hope you don’t miss the wonderful chance to watch this extravagantly made, moving work of art. The film will keep your eyes and ears busy with its fragile and tragic as well as funny neo-Dietrich languidly pouring out her heart through Stephen Trask's witty, acidic songs.
