Political science professor Jules Boykoff and author Martha Gies present. SK
Architectural Heritage Center, 701 SE Grand, 7 pm, FREEPOW!—The third annual Portland Oregon Women's Film Fest (POW) kicks off with an estrogen-fueled bang. Grab a beer and sit down to an evening of all-local, all women-directed shorts and a feature. Riding high on Kathryn Bigelow's historic Oscar nab for Best Director, the women of POW will be in fine spirits as they screen their varied and thoughtful films. CF
