AFS presents a free series of films that influenced Wes Anderson’s ASTEROID CITY. The series includes three classic works of mid-century cinema, and as the capper to this series, AFS will present a special Sneak Preview of ASTEROID CITY.

ASTEROID CITY takes place in a fictional American desert town circa 1955. The itinerary of a Junior Stargazer/Space Cadet convention (organized to bring together students and parents from across the country for fellowship and scholarly competition) is spectacularly disrupted by world-changing events.
