LACMA members are invited to join FILM at LACMA for a special advanced screening of Don't Let's Go to the Dogs Tonight, followed by a conversation with writer, director, producer, and featured actor Embeth Davidtz at AMC The Grove 14.
Based on a New York Times bestselling memoir of the same name, the film thrusts us into the tumultuous world of 8-year-old Bobo, whose childhood unfolds on her family’s Rhodesian farm, now Zimbabwe, as the Bush War rages to its bitter end. Set against this violent backdrop, and seen through Bobo's eyes, we witness the family’s desperate attachment to Africa's soil and the deep, festering scars of a war that reshapes both land and soul.
Watch the official trailer.
This film is rated R. Opens in select theaters on July 11.
This in-person screening will take place at an off-site theater. Location details will be shared in the email invitation. Capacity is limited and reservations are required.
