Problemista Screening and Talkback

A free screening of *Problemista*, the 2023 surreal comedy from Julio Torres, lands at the Chicago Cultural Center’s Claudia Cassidy Theater on Wednesday, September 30, from 6:30 to 9 p.m. The evening pairs the film with a post-screening talkback, offering a chance to dig into the movie’s absurdist take on immigration and ambition with other audience members. It’s a solid midweek option for fans of offbeat cinema, especially given the room’s intimate setting and the lack of a ticket price. Arrive early to grab a seat, as the theater tends to fill up for these Cultural Center programs.
