Caroling figures at Sutliff Museum

WARREN

The Sutliff Museum is exhibiting a collection of caroling figures from every walk of life. A baker, a fine lady and a chimney sweep sing together in one scene, while a nun, a chef and a child harmonize in another.

Gathered by Cal and Dorothy Cavalcante of Howland over 20 years, the figures capture the spirit of the season in a richly decorated setting. The Cavalcantes displayed the carolers on their mantle for years. Dorothy, a Warren city school teacher, died unexpectedly last spring, and her husband agreed to exhibit the collection at the Sutliff as a memorial to her.

The display may be viewed from 2:45 p.m. every Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, except Christmas weekend, through December. The Sutliff will have an open house from 2 to 4 p.m. Dec. 11 for its Victorian Christmas tree and decorations. Admission is free. The museum is in the Warren-Trumbull County Public Library, 444 Mahoning Ave. Go to sutliffmuseum.org for more information.

Argentinian film at Westminster

NEW WILMINGTON, Pa.

The Jake Erhardt International Film Series will show the Argentinean film “El Secreto de Sus Ojos [The Secret in Their Eyes]” at 7 p.m. in the Sebastian Mueller Theater of Westminster College’s McKelvey Campus Center. The screening is free and open to the public. A short introduction will be given before the showing, and a discussion will follow.

The 2009 film won an Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film and more than a dozen awards from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences of Argentina, including Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress and Best Music.

The story is set in 1999 and told in flashback form as retired Argentinean federal agent Benjamin Esposito is writing a novel based on a closed cold case involving rape and murder. Esposito and his assistant are certain the real killer is still at large, and revisiting the case becomes an issue of closure for Esposito.
