A ninth annual Margaret Mead Traveling Film and Video Festival, which takes viewers on intimate journeys around the world, will be next weekend in the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, 33rd and Spruce streets in Philadelphia. Some of the 11 featured films will focus on a laughing club in India, a mockumentary of a successful Mexican invasion of the United States and a surrogate mother giving birth. In addition to the laughing club documentary, it will include another about female cabaret strippers in India. Because of the mature nature of the films, parental discretion is advised.
