The free film screenings at museums across town are one of our favorite little secrets about life in D.C. — why pay upwards of $20 to see yet another Hollywood flop with your S.O. when you can pay, well, nothing and see an incredible foreign film, art-house flick, or documentary? Head to the Freer Gallery for the 17th annual Iranian Film Festival, which kicks off on Friday, January 25, and runs through Sunday, February 24. We've marked our calendars for A Modest Reception, a darkly funny psychological thriller from director Mani Haghighi.

Freer Gallery, Jefferson Drive at 12th St SW; 202-633-4880.
