Sobre nós
We go and see the best and most interesting films around.
We usually meet for a while before the film to eat or drink, chat about what's been happening, and to discuss the films we've already seen.

ABOUT THESE FILMS
AMÉLIE (8:40 pm, ticket)
The 25th anniversary.
"23-year-old Amélie is lonely. After an isolating childhood, she moves to Paris and becomes a waitress at the Café des Deux Moulins, a bar restaurant filled with a colourful cast of diners and employees.
Amélie cultivates a penchant for small pleasures – eating red raspberries from her fingers, dipping her hand into sacks of grain, cracking a crème brûlée with a teaspoon, and skipping stones at Canal St. Martin. When a surprising discovery changes Amélie’s life from then on in, she devotes herself to helping others find happiness in delightful and unexpected ways."
— Watershed summary" ... wildly amusing, sometimes sardonic and always touching. There's so much here, and all of it delightful."
★★★★★ Desson Thomson, Washington PostOBSESSION (8:20 pm, ticket)
A bold new voice in horror.
"When a shy hopeless romantic makes a wish that his long-time crush falls in love with him, a sinister enchantment ensues in writer/director Curry Barker's freaky and frightening feature debut.
"Bear (Michael Johnston) has long carried a torch for his childhood best friend Nikki (Inde Navarrette). After breaking a mysterious trinket to win her heart, he finds himself getting exactly what he wished for - and then some. Before long, his fantasy turns to nightmare as Nikki edges further and further into a dangerous and dark obsession..."
— Watershed summary"Obsession should keep everyone awake long after they get home from seeing it."
