Justice4Reel Film Festival: Slipping one last film fest into a cinematically bubbling year, this weeklong fest put on by the John Humphrey Centre for Peace and Human Rights focuses on documentary stories of oppression and resistance.

Next Saturday there are two screenings — Los Colones and Principles of Resistance: The Gordon Hirabayashi Story, 3 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. — then a casual evening event.
