Filmbàr screening of Werner Herzog's Aguirre, The Wrath of God (1972) at Research and Publication Centre (RPC) on Friday, July 31, 2026, at 5pm.
South America, 16th Century. Spanish explorer Don Lope de Aguirre leads an expedition down the Amazon river to find the fabled city of El Dorado. Beset on all sides by unfriendly natives, the journey will turn out to be a treacherous one. An even bigger enemy to the party is themselves, as they start to turn on each other. Even more problematic is their leader, who is quite oppressive and does not appear to be entirely sane.
The screening will be followed by a discussion over tea.
Address: Research and publication Centre (RPC), 2nd floor, 65 Main Boulevard Gulberg, Lahore (next to Standard Chartered Bank, above indesign showroom).
