Winter Kept Us Warm // Sackville Cinematheque
February 7 @ 7:00 pm
On Friday Feb. 7 at the Owens Art Gallery, the Sackville Cinematheque will be hosting a screening of the 1965 film Winter Kept Us Warm, the first ever Canadian film about a gay romance. Directed by David Sector, Winter Kept Us Warm was an unexpected smash, scoring a spot at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival. Sixty years after its release, Winter offers a uniquely heart wrenching portrait of queer attraction when being gay was still a crime in Canada. The screening starts at 7pm and is free to attend.
