LEWISTON — The Global Lens film series at Bates College will continue Friday, Oct. 2, and Sunday, Oct. 4, with “My Time Will Come,” by Ecuadorian director Victor Arregui.

Showings will be at 8 p.m. in Room 105 at Olin Arts Center, 75 Russell St. Admission is $5.

The series is produced by the Global Film Initiative to promote cross-cultural understanding by showing little-known, skillfully made independent films to American audiences.

“My Time Will Come” tells the story of Dr. Arturo Fernandez, a reclusive Quito coroner. Through the film, a series of interwoven tragedies will lead the protagonist to reconcile his relationships with both the living and the dead.

Made in 2008, the 90-minute film is in Spanish with English subtitles.

After working as a director of photography for television and documentary films, winning awards and acclaim from organizations such as UNICEF, Arregui produced his first short film, “El Tropezon,” in 1999. His first full-length film, “Offside,” was screened at more than 30 film festivals. “My Time Will Come” is his second feature film.
