THE SHROUDS
October 24 at 2:30 p.m.
David Cronenberg returns! Exploring body horror and the grotesque while rendering grief a physical process, the film – which premiered at the Cannes Film Festival – incites profoundly emotional insights on death, loss and mourning. BUY TICKETS
NIGHTBITCH
October 25 at 9:15 p.m.
Screening to be followed by a conversation with producer and actor Amy Adams.
A frank, perceptive and fur-ociously funny adaptation of Rachel Yoder’s bestselling novel, NIGHTBITCH will have you howling with laughter and crying with joy. BUY TICKETS
THE BALCONETTES (LES FEMMES AU BALCON)
October 25 at 9:40 p.m.
U.S. Premiere
THE BALCONETTES is as much a supernatural, genre-defying romp as it is a medley of female defiance in the face of masculine entitlement and sexual violence. BUY TICKETS
SISTER MIDNIGHT
October 26 at 9:45 p.m.
Screening to be followed by a conversation with director and writer Karan Kandhari.
This audacious horror-comedy boasts an impressive performance from lead Radhika Apte, who dazzles and delights with deadpan affect, dexterous physical comedy bits and a blue streak of creative cursing. BUY TICKETS
