French Film Showing – The Fast Runner (Zacharias Kunuk. 2001)
7-9 pm | March 3. Igloolik at the dawn of the first millennium, when nomadic Inuit were masters of the frozen arctic. Evil in the form of an unknown shaman divides a small community of Inuit, upsetting its balance and spirit. Twenty years pass. Two brothers emerge from the evil order: Amaqjuaq, the Strong One, and Atanarjuat, The Fast Runner. Atanarjuat wins the hand of the lovely Atuat away from the boastful son of the camp leader, Oki, who vows to get even. Oki ambushes the brothers in their sleep, killing Amaqjuaq, as Atanarjuat miraculously escapes running naked over the spring sea ice. But can he ever escape the cycle of vengeance left behind?

Sacred Spaces Volume 1: The Minutes
See website for schedule. A dark comedy about the agony and ecstasy of small-town government. Good intentions collide with malicious inertia when an upstart young councilman returns from a brief leave of absence. Missing the minutes from the previous meeting, he senses the other council members—from shy civil servants to buffoonish politicians to senile elder statesmen—are hiding something awful about what transpired. In hilarious and unsettling fashion, The Minutes shows how fictional towns like Big Cherry and real towns like Davidson wrestle with uncomfortable task of recording their own histories. $12-$25. Recommended for ages 15-plus. Armour Street Theatre, 307 Armour St., Davidson.
