PRESENTED BY KCRW.
Q&A WITH FILMMAKER BETH M. HOWARD AFTER THE SHOW.
KCRW Presents “Pieowa: A Piece of America.” Pieowa celebrates the myriad ways pie is baked into Iowa’s—and America’s—culture, the lengths people will go to for a slice, and how this humble pastry can make the world a better place. Featuring comedian Tom Arnold, NPR economics correspondent Scott Horsley (NPR = No Pie Refused), Better Homes & Gardens food editor, church ladies, State Fair competitors, food historians, bike riders, pie shop owners, and more. Wholesome, uplifting, and humorous, it will leave you both hopeful and hungry for pie. The LA Times calls it “a soulful slice of Americana.”
PIE WILL BE SERVED AT BOTH SCREENINGS

CALLE MALAGA (2025)
STARTS MARCH 6TH.
TICKETS ON SALE SOON.
“Maria Angeles, a 79 year-old Spanish woman, lives alone in Tangier, Morcco, and enjoys her daily routine. However, her life is turned upside down when her daughter arrives from Madrid to sell the apartment in which she has always lived. Determined to stay, she does everything she can to get her home and her belongings back and, unexpectedly, rediscovers love and sensuality.”
BY DESIGN (2025)
STARTS MARCH 6TH.
TICKETS ON SALE SOON.
“Upon seeing a gorgeous chair in a showroom, Camille (Juliette Lewis) realizes that she truly envies the life of this perfect piece of furniture. If only she could be someone’s favorite thing. When she and the chair swap forms, Camille learns that she is better liked as an inanimate object than she was as a person: her mother (Betty Buckley) finds her to be a better listener, and her best friends (Samantha Mathis and Robin Tunney) enjoy a newfound, friction-free rapport. As the chair, Camille is unable to speak or move and winds up in the hands of Olivier (Mamoudou Athie), a minimalist bachelor who gradually becomes romantically fixated on his elegant new possession. Narrated by Melanie Griffith, this modern fable celebrates the messiness of female interiority with deadpan humor, surrealist flourishes, and interpretative dance numbers. An absurdist spin on the body-swap comedy, By Design is a bold new work from singular filmmaker Amanda Kramer.”
FOR WORSE (2025)
STARTS MARCH 6TH.
TICKETS ON SALE SOON.
“A newly divorced mom attends a wedding with a much younger date and behaves like a drunk 25 year old bridesmaid to try and keep up. What starts as a fun fling and wild weekend reclaiming her youth leads to something more when she unexpectedly sparks a connection with a fellow divorcee.”
KOKUHO (2025)
STARTS MARCH 6TH.
TICKETS ON SALE SOON.
“From acclaimed director Sang-il Lee (Pachinko), KOKUHO (meaning “national treasure”) is a film of awe-inspiring scope and sumptuous beauty, and a monument to the artists who would sacrifice everything in the pursuit of the ultimate performance. Nagasaki, 1964. After the death of his father, the leader of a yakuza gang, 14-year-old Kikuo is taken under the wing of a famous Kabuki actor. Alongside Shunsuke, the actor’s only son, Kikuo decides to dedicate himself to this traditional form of theatre. Across decades, the two young men grow and evolve together – from acting school to the grandest stages – amid scandals and glory, brotherhood and betrayals, as each pushes to become the greatest living Kabuki master.”
