Four great women artists are in the spotlight this month at the Faena’s Screening Room, in a cinema cycle of new and classic films, programmed by guest curator Jaie Laplante, director of programming of the Miami Film Festival. Larger-than-life polaroid portraits of Beat poets, Harvard scholars and rock stars have been Elsa Dorfman’s niche for decades and Oscar-winner Errol Morris takes a look at her career in “The B-Side: Elsa Dorman’s Portrait Photography.” Salma Hayek has never been better than in her star turn as Mexican painter Frida Kahlo in Julie Taymor’s “Frida.” A chance purchase at a Chicago garage sale exhumes one of the great unknown photographers of the past century, in the Oscar-nominated “Finding Vivian Maier.” And the earthy, passionate choreography of the late German choreographer Pina Bausch is captured in Wim Wenders’ beautiful and ageless documentary, “Pina.”

Seating is limited. Free and open to the public. RSVP encouraged to screenings@faena.com.
