The Ira Holmes International Film Series at the College of Central Florida will host two screenings of “Some Kind of Heaven” on Feb. 25. The 2020 documentary by Lance Oppenheim gives viewers a behind the scenes look at The Villages, which is America’s largest retirement community and is situated just south of Ocala.

Attendees at the two screenings, one at the CF Appleton Museum of Art and the other on the CF campus in Ocala, are asked to donate gently used professional attire to the CF Clothing Closet. Those who offer donations will be entered into a special giveaway drawing.

“Whether they are preparing for an interview or stepping into a new role, there are CF students who need our help to dress for success. The CF Clothing Closet empowers students in need to look and feel their best,” noted Wendy Adams, CF Humanities professor and film series director, in a news release.

The film will be shown at 2 p.m. at the Appleton, at 4333 E. Silver Springs Blvd., and at 7 p.m. at the campus at 3001 S.W. College Road, Building 8, Room 110. Films at the Ocala campus are free to attend. Films at the Appleton are free to all museum and film series members; nonmembers pay regular admission. Films in the series may contain mature content.
