?The Navigators,? a new film that chronicles the effects of rail privatization, is being shown through June 12 by the University of Minnesota Film Society.
The movie is directed by Ken Loach, who has a long history of bringing worker issues to film.
?The Navigators? follows the fortunes of a group of South Yorkshire rail track workers as the privatization of British Rail takes effect. The film shows the "view from below" as the workers have to ?navigate? their way through the chaos and crises that follow privatization.
The film screens each night at 7:15 and 9:15 at the Film Society's Bell Auditorium, 17th and University Ave. SE. Admission is $6, $5 for students and seniors.
