Jun 19: Summer Independent Film Festival,
Every Monday, the library will have a wonderful
film at 2 & 7pm. Anytown USA is a funny and
eye-opening look into a hard fought mayoral race in
Bogota, NJ, between a legally blind conservative
Republican incumbent, a retired Democrat re-entering
the fray, and a legally blind write-in candidate. A
quirky behind-the-scenes look at American politics.
