6:00pm – JoJo Rabbit Winner of 2020 Academy Award for best adapted screenplay. Taika Waititi is the first person of Maori descent to win an Oscar. Waititi (Hunt for the Wilderpeople, Boy, Thor: Ragnarok), brings his signature humour and pathos to this hilarious World War II satire that follows a lonely boy (Roman Griffin Davis) whose world view is turned upside down when he discovers his single mother (Scarlett Johansson) is hiding a young Jewish girl (Thomasin McKenzie) in their attic. Aided only by his idiotic imaginary friend, Adolf Hitler (Waititi), Jojo must confront his blind nationalism. In English & German w/ English subtitles. Dir. T. Waititi, 2019, NZE/CZE/USA, 108 min. Recommended for ages 13+. “Taika Waititi knocks it out of der park with the meaningful lunacy of his anti-hate satire, which is equal parts Mel Brooks, Wes Anderson and Waititi’s own whimsical brilliance.” ~P Howell, The Toronto Star

8:15pm – Queen & Slim In this stylish drama where Black Lives Matter meets Thelma and Louise, Slim and Queen’s first date takes an unexpected turn when a policeman pulls them over for a minor traffic violation. When the situation escalates and Slim shoots the officer in self-defense, the couple – terrified and in fear for their lives – are forced to go on the run. But the incident is captured on video and goes viral, and the couple unwittingly become a symbol of trauma, terror, grief and pain for people across the country. As they drive south, these two unlikely fugitives will discover their shared humanity. Dir. M. Matsoukas, 2019, USA, 132 min. Recommended for ages 16+.
