Behind The Haystacks

Behind The Haystacks – Screening on Sunday October 20 at 6:00pm!

Advance tickets now available for Behind The Haystacks!

Presented by the Greek International Film Festival Tour of Canada, and local organizer Parnassos Hellenic Cultural Society of Ottawa.

In 2015, a tragic incident on Greece’s northern border strikes a local family of three, pushing them to face their own personal impasses, while having to deeply consider the price for their actions. *During this period several European countries had closed their borders, resulting in hundreds of refugees and immigrants being trapped near the northern borders of Greece. Greek with English subtitles.

*This event is a rental. Tickets will be cash only if available on the day of the screening. Normal Mayfair prices and memberships do not apply.

*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!

A middle-aged fisherman living with his wife and daughter on Greece’s northern border, who is drowning in debt, starts to smuggle migrants across the border lake, in exchange for a hefty fee. Until a tragic incident strikes the family, pushing the three heroes to face their own personal impasses and weaknesses.
