5 Stars! “a mature and beautiful story, the union of a celebrated author with a filmmaker in his creative prime.” (National Post)

“masterclass performances” (Film Inquiry)

“Every performance in the film is extraordinary…A transcendent experience” (What She Said)

“I love this movie like a person. It pierced my heart the way certain paintings or pieces of music do. The way standing at the foot of a mountain does. The first time I saw it, I had to stay in my cinema seat for five minutes after it ended” (The Globe & Mail)

*Please take note that doors open 30 minutes before showtimes. We encourage people to arrive early. We have a small box office, a small candy bar, and a single-screen cinema, meaning that when most of an audience shows up a few minutes before showtime, it causes a bottleneck. If possible, we appreciate you arriving a little bit early to pick out your seat and get your popcorn. Thanks for your help!

The story of two Mennonite sisters who have left their strict religious upbringing behind. While one sibling struggles in love and life, the other is a world-famous concert pianist.
