Events Schedule

February 16, 2010   Event: Gimli Film Festival - Winter Film Series Description: YOUNG @ HEART - Documentary Young @ Heart is a humorous and inspiring documentary that challenges the stereotypes of old age in a world obsessed with eternal youth. For over twenty-five years, the Young @ Heart Chorus has entertained audiences at home and abroad with unique renditions of punk, rock and rhythm-and-blues songs by musicians as varied as Radiohead, Jimi Hendrix and The Clash. Of course, the average age of most rock ‘n’ rollers isn’t eighty years young. As the group prepares for a new show hilariously titled “Alive and Well,” Young @ Heart’s taskmaster and choral director Bob Cilian has a new collection of songs for these lively elders to learn. Funny, poignant and inspirational, the film offers the kind of wisdom that can only be cultivated with age, as the elderly protagonists cope with loss and forge on in an ever-changing society. “A crowd-pleaser in the best sense, this alternately hilarious and heartbreaking movie will send you out of the theatre with a new lease on life.” – David Ansen, Newsweek Rating: PG Director: Stephen Walker Country: US Website: ww.foxsearchlight.com/youngatheart Playing at the Gimli Theatre at 7:30pm Tickets are $8.00 and student are $5.00   Event: Lap Swimming at Misty Lake Lodge Description: Adults only. $4 - pay at the front desk.
