The public is invited to a free four-part movie and discussion series, "Pushing the Limits" for adults, at the Pembroke Library on Jan. 27.

Explore the limits of survival, nature, connection and knowledge in everyday life; stories about real people.

It starts with the theme "Pushing the Limits of Survival" and includes a movie, light supper and door prizes.

The G-rated movie, "The Endurance," starts at 6 p.m. Narrated by Liam Neeson, the documentary tells of Sir Ernest Shackleton’s ill-fated expedition to Antarctica in 1914-16.

A book recommended for the discussion, "Arctic Drift" by Clive Cussler, is available at the library; just ask at the desk.

Film historian Jim Reed will moderate. His column, "Film Scene," appears in the Savannah Morning News’ DoSavannah.

The Pembroke Library is one of 100 rural public libraries nationwide receiving funding from the National Science Foundation for this series. It is at 1018 Camellia Drive. Call 912-653-2822 to sign up.
