Uncommon Ground

In this wordless and gorgeously atmospheric animated feature, a solitary black cat survives a tsunami and must confront his fear of water whilst sailing through a flooded world with a group of misfit animals. An enchanting adventure film for all ages. Rated: G

James Danderfer leads an all-star band in a tribute show to "the King of the Clarinet", Artie Shaw. Followed by a screening of the Academy Award-winning documentary, Artie Shaw: Time Is All You've Got, a candid profile of this multi-talented artist.

A young seamstress finds herself abandoned and pregnant in post-WWI Copenhagen. With few options, she turns to a candy shop owner who offers special services to women in need, but who is not quite what she seems. Nightmarish expressionist cinema.

Tyler Perry's inspirational drama illuminates an overlooked slice of history. It's the story of the first (and only) Black Women's battalion to serve in Europe during WWII.

Nearly a century after her death Loie Fuller is still inspiring artists like Taylor Swift, Shakira, Bill T Jones and William Kentridge. She became world famous as an innovative dancer, combining fabric, lighting effects and movement in revolutionary ways.

The funniest, and certainly the furriest movie you will see this year, Hundreds of Beavers channels the zany slapstick shtick of Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin and Bugs Bunny through a videogame quest narrative to retell the eternal saga of Man v Nature. All proceeds from this screening go to the Vancouver Food Bank.
