WEDNESDAY MARCH 7 / FAMILY PORTRAIT IN BLACK & WHITE /ROYAL CINEMA/ 7PM

While on the outside this may seem like an inspiring documentary about Ukranian foster mother Olga who houses 23 children under her roof, it is truly a more complex tale than that. In this difficult documentary that made waves at Sundance and Hot Docs last year, we're presented with a family of bi-racial children in a country that is overwhelmingly white and a foster mother weakening under the pressure to raise these children the best way she knows how, with a little help from the "Great Leader." Tickets are $10 and can be purchased 30 minutes before the screening.

THURSDAY MARCH 8 / UNE FEMME DOUCE /TIFF BELL LIGHTBOX/ 6PM
Une Femme Douceis a suffocating drama about a young, narcissistic husband trying to comprehend his quiet wife's alleged suicide. In flashbacks and bits of memory, their relationship and her story is pieced together through his frame of reference and the audience is implored to form their own opinion on the situation at hand. A wonderful piece of interpretive cinema, young model Dominique Sanda does a wonderful turn in her first cinematic role as the tragic housewife. Tickets are $12 and can be purchased at the cinema.
