 ¡°The Ox¡± is a 92-minute film about the harsh realities of life in 1860s Sm?land, Sweden.

 ¡°Based on an actual incident, ¡°The Ox¡± is set during a period of terrible drought that drove many Swedes to find new lives in the American Midwest, but it is not a story of why people left...but instead an homage to those who, whether by choice or not, stayed and persevered,¡± said the Los Angeles Times.

 Parking for visitors is available along 7th Avenue or in Lot E near Centennial Hall.
