The NDSU Art Cinema Series, a partnership with the NDSU Department of Visual Arts and the Fargo Theatre, will begin in October with the showing of “Urban Explorers: Into the Darkness.” The film will run one night only, Monday, Oct. 4, at 7 p.m. at the Fargo Theatre. Tickets are $5 each.

“Urban Explorers” is a 2006 documentary about abandoned, neglected or otherwise “off limits” places and the people who explore them. Documentary filmmaker Melody Gilbert first heard about this subculture through a story about six urban explorers in St. Paul, Minn., who were arrested as suspected terrorists. Gilbert reveals an extraordinary underground world of individuals bonded by their sense of curiosity and adventure.

Future films include:

Nov. 1: "Last Year at Marienbad"

Dec. 6: "Goya’s Ghosts"

Feb. 7: "The Lost Honor of Katharina Blum"

April 4: "Exit Through the Gift Shop"

May 2: "Visual Acoustics: The Modernism of Julius Shulman"
