This year's feature film: IF
Prepare to be swept away by the heartwarming PG-rated film
IF, which follows 12-year-old Bea as she discovers she can see imaginary friends (IF). With the help of Cal, a fellow IF-seer, Bea sets out to reunite these whimsical companions with the children who once imagined them. Themes of family, resilience and the magic of childhood imagination make this a perfect pick for our community gathering.
Families with children under five years may wish to preview the film's content before attending.
