Marquette will sponsor the film “Capturing the Flag,” which will run at the Oriental Theatre the weekend of Friday, Oct. 26, during the Milwaukee Film Festival.
“Capturing the Flag” follows a tight-knit group of friends as they travel to Cumberland County, North Carolina to investigate how voter suppression played a role in the 2016 election.
Student tickets are available as part of the Marquette Forum events. Marquette Forum is a year-long series of inclusive conversations bringing experts of national renown together with those from Marquette and the Milwaukee community. Tickets for the film are made possible through a sponsorship by the Office of the President. More information about the 2018 Milwaukee Film Festival is available online.
