A critical favorite and word-of-mouth sensation at this year’s Cannes Festival, where it took the Jury Prize, this wickedly funny psychodrama tells the story of a model Swedish family – handsome businessman Tomas, wife Ebba and their two blond, pre-teen children – on a skiing holiday in the French Alps. As an avalanche turns everything upside down, Tomas makes a decision that will shake his family’s world.
Monday Night Movies in Tofino is a weekly film series run by The Clayoquot Sound Community Theatre Association. One film each month is a social issue documentary, often with discussion afterwards. Doors open at 7:30 and shows begin at 8 pm every Monday. All proceeds from the door go to the CSCTA and are used to support the maintenance of, and programming in, the theatre. We hold two public performance licenses from Criterion Pictures in Vaughan, ON and Audio-Cine Films, Inc.in Montreal. There is also an All Organic Concession, serving Popcorn, Movie Bars & Tea.
