The Loft Cinema — our beloved, local art house theatre in midtown — likes to explore outside its location at 3233 E. Speedway Blvd. now and again, bringing the big screen to other areas of Southern Arizona. It’s called Solar Cinema. The team takes a giant inflatable screen (one that’s either 12 feet or 20 feet in size) and their state-of-the-art mobile projection system to places like the University of Arizona and Himmel Park. This month: the San Xavier Co-op Farm ! At 7 p.m. on Friday, March 15, they’re setting up at the San Xavier Co-op Farm at 8100 Oidak Wog. The feature is the late ’90s film “Smoke Signals,” admission is free, and they suggest you bring your own seating.

Don’t forget to bring your friends and something to lounge on! “Smoke Signals” runs for about 90 minutes — a film that was entirely written, directed, and acted by Native Americans.
