“a moving portrait of a world in flux, and one man attempting to survive the changes thrust upon him by a baffling outside world.” (RogerEbert.com)

“the story does a fascinating job of exploring some very real-world issues…a moving, gripping and often-heartbreakingly real tale.” (Coming Soon)

“a touching parable…is a slender, rather bleak but tough, rough-cut little jewel that deserves your time and attention.” (Cinevue)

“Scicluna has terrific presence on-screen” (Shadows On The Wall)

*The management kindly asks for all patrons to arrive 20-30 minutes before the movie starts. Since our space and seating capacity is limited, early arrival will help prevent last-minute overcrowding and give patrons enough room for proper physical distancing. We appreciate your cooperation.
