56 UP is the latest installment of acclaimed filmmaker Michael Apted's stirring documentary series, which started with Seven UP, and has followed 14 English children of different socioeconomic backgrounds, starting at age seven to their present age of 56, reexamining their lives every seven years. The in-depth and thought-provoking look at seemingly ordinary lives reveals common threads in human experiences and examines whether it's circumstance or self-determination that ultimately shapes people's lives. Apted as well as Senior Variety Editor Pat Saperstein will be on hand for Q&As following Friday and Saturday's 4:45pm and 8pm showtimes. Can't make it to the special engagement screenings? The Nuart will continue to show the film until Jan 24th.
