The Little will screen Diva (Jean-Jacques Beineix, France 1981, 117 min.) at 7:30 p.m. preceded by a musical performance by soprano Kearstin Piper Brown for their Diva Festiva: A Fundraising Event For The Little.

The fundraising evening includes a rare 35mm screening of 1982's Diva. The classic film has a special bond with The Little — it was one of the longest running films in the theater's history. Despite this epic run, screenings of Diva are rare today, and that's why we're thrilled to begin theater 1's historic restoration with this intelligent, brilliant, and memorable movie.

Two tapes, two Parisian mob killers, one corrupt policeman, an opera fan, a teenage thief, and the coolest philosopher ever filmed. All these characters twist their way through an intricate and stylish French language thriller.
