The Lake Oswego Public Library is excited to announce the World Cinema Series, a new program in partnership with The Lake Theater Cafe. Discover a diverse selection of films from around the world, presented with English subtitles. After each screening, join us for thoughtful discussions exploring different cultures and cinematic styles.

Our inaugural film, Past Lives, is a critically acclaimed Korean romantic drama by Celine Song. This poignant story follows two childhood friends over twenty years, delving into themes of love, fate, and the paths not taken.
