SUMMARY:The Square - 4PM
DESCRIPTION:[col_one_third ] \n \n[/col_one_third] \n[col_two_thirds ] \nThe Square\n\nScreening:\nThursday\, April 19\, 2018 – 4 pm\, 7:15 pm\nLocation: Uptown Theatre\, 55 Dunlop St. W.\, Barrie \n  \n\n[btnsx id=”4150″] \n  \nWritten and Directed by: Ruben Östlund\nCast: Elizabeth Moss\, Claes Bang\, Terry Notary and Dominic West\nComedy/Drama\, 14A for coarse language\, disturbing and crude content\, 151 minutes\, English and Swedish\, Danish with English subtitles (Sweden) \n  \n\n\n“It’s laugh-out-loud funny and occasionally just plain silly. But it asks a serious question that seems more urgent with every passing day: “How much inhumanity does it take before we access your humanity?” – Peter Howell\, Toronto Star \n\n“An examination of social context\, elitism\, cultural bubbles and more\, The Square is – to put it precisely – absolutely bonkers. But purposefully bonkers.” – Tom Long\, Detroit News \n\n  \n[/col_two_thirds] \n[col_one ] \n  \n  \nSwedish provocateur Ruben Östlund\, the director of Force Majeure\, returns with The Square\, one of his most audacious pieces to date and winner of the prestigious Palme d’Or at Cannes. A spot-on\, no-holds-barred satire of the more vapid foibles of the postmodern art world\, the film follows Christian (Claes Bang)\, the imperious\, self-centred\, and hopelessly befuddled curator of Sweden’s most cutting-edge art museum. \nHe’s a divorced but devoted father of two who drives an electric car and supports good causes. His next show is “The Square”\, an installation which invites passersby to altruism\, reminding them of their role as responsible fellow human beings. But sometimes\, it is difficult to live up to your own ideals: Christian’s foolish response to the theft of his phone drags him into shameful situations. Meanwhile\, the museum’s PR agency has created an unexpected campaign for “The Square”. The response is overblown and sends Christian\, as well as the museum\, into an existential crisis. \n  \nAwards:\nNominated\, Best Foreign Language Film\, Academy Awards\, USA\, 2018\nNominated\, Best Foreign Language Film\, Golden Globes\, USA\, 2018\nNominated\, Best Feature\, Adelaide Film Festival\, 2017\nWinner\, Best Non English Language Film\, Alliance of Women Film Journalists\, 2018\nWinner\, Best Foreign Language Film\, Boston Society of Film Critics Awards\, 2017\nWinner\, European Comedy\, European Film\, European Director\,European Film Awards\, 2017\nWinner\, Best European Film\, Goya Awards\, 2018\nWinner\, Best Foreign Film\, Guild of German Art House Cinemas\, 2017\nWinner\, Best Foreign Language Film\, Toronto Film Critics Association Awards\, 2017 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V74sHdm76WU” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n  \n  \n \n[/col_one]
