Global Voices Festival

Brattle Theatre

Every once in a while we need to be reminded that there's a whole world out there and it's falling apart. Cue the United Nations Association of Greater Boston's annual Global Voices Festival, which this year takes place October 8-11 at the Harvard Kennedy School, the Harvard Film Archive, and the Brattle Theatre. It opens today at the HFA with a 6 pm reception followed by a 7:30 pm screening of Stephanie Soechtig's Tapped, a documentary about the water crisis in the United States. The director will be available after the screening for a discussion, in the Carpenter Center, 24 Quincy St, Cambridge | 617.482.4587 or www.bostonfilms.org.
