We couldn't be happier that we get the chance to bring you Beans this weekend. This is a Canadian-made, First Nations film with a ton of heart. Beans opens a compelling window into the indigenous coming-of-age experience -- and serves as an affecting debut for Kiawentiio.

"Director Tracey Deer's award-winning debut feature puts the Oka Crisis into sharp focus while telling a compelling coming-of-age story." - Thom Ernst

The Oscar winning film (Best Supporting Actress, Youn Yuh-jung) Minari arrives at the Princess. It's well worth the wait to see this feel-good film properly, on the big screen. 

"Wistful and passionate, Minari is a gorgeously crafted film that synthesises the bittersweet pleasures of staying true to your past -- and making space for your future." - Harper's Bazaar

Good news, we've extended the run of Pig. Easily one-of, if not the most-talked about films that we've screened in some time. "[It's Cage's] best performance in years. [His character] reminding those around him that life is too precious to treat like something you can 'win.'"- Variety

Plus all this week at the Princess...

We just had to extend the run of the Best Picture winning film, Nomadland; we added in a few matinee screenings if you didn't get a chance to see this film with us over the last week. 

Ditto for Roadrunner: A Film About Anthony Bourdain, this epic documentary from Morgan Neville (20 Feet From Stardom, Won’t You Be My Neighbor?) has been a KW favourite since we opened it a week ago, catch it on the big screen while you still can! 

Follow us on Instagram as well to stay up to date.

See you at the movies this Friday!
