Chicago International Film Fest Preview + Ballet 5:8
Gary Zidek

On this edition of The Arts Section, host Gary Zidek checks in with the artistic director of the Chicago International Film Festival, which gets underway later this week. Lots of great films on the schedule, we’ll highlight some of them. The Dueling Critics, Kerry Reid and Jonathan Abarbanel, stop by to talk about a new play that reimagines a period of Botticelli’s life. Later in the show, Gary talks to the artistic director of an ambitious ballet company that’s hoping to reach new audiences. And we’ll hear about an exhibit that offers a comprehensive look at a defining piece of Chicago history.
