Scott Blanding, a Cave Spring High School and Temple University graduate, spent two months in the Congo filming a documentary about the brutality of women caught in the Congolese fighting. His film, Women in War Zones, will show at 7:30 at the Taubman Museum of Art, and the tickets are $5. The tickets are going quickly so you might want to order online.
