For the past 10 years, the GI Film Festival has highlighted movies for, by and about active duty service members and veterans.
The narrative short “Doldrums" is among the films having its San Diego premiere Friday. It follows a Vietnam War veteran haunted by memories of the soldiers he led and the Viet Cong medic who saved his life.
"Doldrums" will be screened at 7:30 p.m. at the Museum of Photographic Arts at the San Diego Museum of Art in Balboa Park.
Also, KPBS arts reporter Beth Accomando previews Park Opera, which takes its own twist on the operatic form and combines it with the natural sounds of Balboa Park.
And then, KPBS arts reporter Julia Dixon Evans shares her top arts picks for the weekend, from the musical phenomenon "Hamilton" to visual art inspired by dreams.
