12 Years a Slave

It's far from comfortable viewing, but 12 Years a Slave's unflinchingly brutal look at American slavery is also brilliant -- and quite possibly essential -- cinema.

Moose Jaw, 217 Main St N, Moose Jaw, SK S6H 0W1, Canada

About the event

In honour of Black History Month, we are showing 12 Years a Slave.

In the years before the Civil War, Solomon Northup (Chiwetel Ejiofor), a free black man from upstate New York, is kidnapped and sold into slavery in the South. Subjected to the cruelty of one malevolent owner (Michael Fassbender), he also finds unexpected kindness from another, as he struggles continually to survive and maintain some of his dignity. Then in the 12th year of the disheartening ordeal, a chance meeting with an abolitionist from Canada changes Solomon's life forever.

Movies always start at 7 PM with fresh popcorn and chilled beverages! Only $10 a ticket.
