Movie Night: Rosie

Thursday January 25 @ 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM

Rosie film three adults and a girl with shopping carts and dressed fabulously

Thursday, January 25 | 6 pm

Join us for a screening of Rosie (2022).

A film about family, love, and misfits, Rosie tells the story of a young, orphaned, Indigenous girl who is forced to live with her reluctant, street-smart Aunty Fred (Frédérique). Rosie is thrust into the fringes of 1980’s Montréal into the care of Fred, who just lost her job, is on the verge of eviction, and who looks and sounds nothing like her. Fred, an artist who creates art from found and discarded objects or other peoples’ trash, introduces Rosie to her two best friends Flo and Mo, glamorous human beings who refuse to be confined by gender. Rosie transforms the lives of these colourful characters and finds what she’s been searching for with her new chosen family of glittering outsiders.

Directed by Gail Maurice. In English (with some spoken French, with English subtitles)

Drop in, no registration required. Come a little early and grab a comfy chair—film starts promptly at 6 pm, and runs 92 minutes. Rated 14-A.
