SUMMARY:TLI Cinematics: The Mission
DESCRIPTION:Studio E\, Linde Center for Music and Learning\, Lenox/Stockbridge\, MA\nSat\, Mar 14\, 2026 7:00pm \nGET TICKETS\nJesuit priest Father Gabriel (Jeremy Irons) enters the Guaraní lands in South America with the purpose of converting the natives to Christianity. He soon builds a mission\, where he is joined by Rodrigo Mendoza (Robert DeNiro)\, a reformed slave trader seeking redemption. When a treaty transfers the land from Spain to Portugal\, Mendoza and Gabriel resolve to defend the mission from Portuguese slave traders — but find themselves divided on how to do so while honoring their vows. A stirring examination of the conflict between faith and action that’s lifted up by Ennio Morricone’s timeless score\, Roland Jaffe’s The Mission continues to inspire debate 40 years after its release. \nThis screening will include a talkback hosted by local religious leaders. \nIn collaboration with The Triplex Cinema and Berkshire International Film Festival.

SUMMARY:PRAIRIE PROPHECY in collaboration with Berkshire Community Land Trust and Roaring Brook Family Foundation
