Dan Webster

And the 2018 Spokane International Film Festival comes down to the final two days. And maybe the best is still to come. Tonight's features at the Magic Lantern are:

"Tehran Taboo" (6:30 in the 100-seat house): The sex lives of a prostitute, a musician and two young women intersect in this harsh, animated look at modern Iranian life. "All told, it’s an audacious debut" (Hollywood Reporter).

U.S. and Canada Shorts (6:45 p.m. in the 33-seat house): "The Ragman — a Hobo's Story Untold" (:16, U.S.), "The Devil Needs a Fix" (:10, U.S.), "Game" (:14, Canada), "Swim" (:12, U.S.), "It's Just a Gun" (:14, U.S.), "The Curtain" (:17, Canada), "This Place Called Nuka — Courting Adventure in Wild Alaska" (:22, U.S.).
