Collin College’s Auteur Film Series will screen “RBG” at 7 p.m., Thursday, Sept. 19 at the Angelika Film Center in Plano.

“RBG” is a 2018 documentary about Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg and her unique position as an icon of justice, advocating for both men and women facing gender bias. The screening is the first of the Auteur Film Series’ 2019-2020 “Cinema of the Body Politic: Civic Action on Screen” selections. Other films in the series include “Thank You for Smoking” and “The Trotsky.”

All screenings are free and open to the public. Doors open 30 minutes before the film begins, and seating is limited. Some material may not be suitable for all audiences. Each film will be followed by a panel discussion led by Collin College faculty and staff.

The Angelika Film Center is located at 7205 Bishop Road, Suite E6 in Plano.
