Marquette – The Let’s Talk About It: Muslim Journeys initiative will offer a screening of the documentary film “Koran By Heart” on Monday, March 10 at 5:30 p.m. in the Community Room of the Peter White Public Library.
Each year during Ramadan, more than a hundred of the best young students from more than 70 countries across the Islamic world converge on Cairo for Egypt’s International Holy Koran Competition. “Koran By Heart” captures the drama of the 2010 edition of this annual event, following three extraordinary ten-year-olds who have dedicated their lives to honoring their families, countries and culture through memorization of the religious text.
“Koran By Heart” was released in 2011 and runs for 90 minutes. Viewers are invited to bring a take-out supper to enjoy during the film. Admission is free. For more information visit www.pwpl.info or call the library at 226-4318.
