The Destruction of Memory, a documentary film

Thursday, October 5th at 7:00 p.m. in the Collins Center for the Arts

This film, offered in conjunction with Maine Archaeology Month, looks at the urgent issue of cultural destruction.  Based on a book of the same name by Robert Bevan, the film documents the war against culture and the battle to save cultural identity–the record of who we are–in the midst of war and conflict.

Free and open to the public.
