Northumberland Film Sundays

Mission Statement

We are a group of film lovers dedicated to offering our community a broad range of movies not otherwise available on our local big screens.

We select films from a menu of contemporary "hot picks" offered by "The Circuit", a division of the Toronto International Film Festival.

We are a not-for-profit group and periodically we will make contributions to Northumberland County charities when a cash surplus permits.

Films are shown at the Rainbow Cinemas at the Northumberland Mall in Cobourg, Ontario at 4.00 pm on selected Sundays. We also produce a Film Festival on a weekend in January - at the same venue.  More on the Festival here.

Its only the end of the worldAfter 12 years away, Louis (Gaspard Ulliel), 34, a writer with a terminal illness, goes back to his hometown with the intention that he's going to tell his family he's dying.

His younger sister Suzanne (Léa Seydoux) was only 10 when he left and she's ecstatic to see him. His mother Martine (Nathalie Baye) is also thrilled, but his older brother Antoine (Vincent Cassel) is angry with Louis and constantly starts arguments. Although Antoine's wife Catherine (Marion Cotillard) seems sweet, she's also totally dominated by her husband.

As the afternoon goes on, Louis tries to connect with his family to tell them his news, but it becomes harder and harder to find an opportune time.
