Don't miss it!

It's another weekend of premieres with TWO new films on the way, so get in soon to catch Fire of Love, Hallelujah, and I Love My Dad. They have their final screenings on Thursday, August 18!

OPENING FRIDAY, AUG 19

ELIZABETH BISHOP AND THE ART OF LOSING

84 min, NR

So often throughout her life, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Elizabeth Bishop's trajectory is tragically disrupted by a profound personal loss that pushes her into her worst self-destructive habits. Yet in her sixties, while grief-stricken, she courageously faces up to her most tragic heartbreak, writes her greatest work, becomes her truest self, learns to master "the art of losing," and earns her place as one of North America's greatest poets.

Transplanted Nova Scotia filmmaker (and Ithaca College faculty member) John D. Scott foregrounds how Bishop's journey is indelibly connected to her Nova Scotian heritage.

John will be on hand for Q & A's throughout the week!
