Film
I can't get enough of these amazing Katrina documentaries (Spike Lee's When The Levees Broke should be required viewing) and we have another one to add to the list: Trouble the Water. The Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights (ICIRR) and the Community Renewal Society present a special screening of the film followed by a Q&A with producers/directors Tia Lessin and Carl Deal.
5 p.m., Landmark Century Cinema, 2828 N. Clark St., Call 773-509-4949 for more info

Festivals
While most of the neighborhood fests are done for the year, there are still a few more chances to get outside and enjoy the nice weather with some drinks, food, and local music. The Lincoln Park Fall Festival features plenty of food and drinks, plus music from Tamara Bedricky, Catfight, Stellar Road, and Dot Dot Dot.
3 p.m. - 11 p.m., Intersection of Southport & Clybourn, $5 donation

Music
Sure, we know that the Hideout Block Party is this weekend's marquee event, but down at The Venue in Hammond, Indiana (if you feel like the drive), you have a chance to catch a true legend: Huey Lewis and The News. Here's hoping they decide to play "The Power of Love."
8 p.m., The Venue, 777 Casino Center Drive, Hammond, IN, $43-73 via Ticketmaster
