Join us in celebrating Art House Theater Day 2025 – and get a free small popcorn! – with a special screening of Céline Sciamma’s powerful coming-of-age film Tomboy–a landmark work in contemporary queer and arthouse cinema.
A luminous exploration of gender identity and childhood, Tomboy follows 10-year-old Laure, who introduces himself as Mickäel after moving to a new neighborhood during summer break. As friendships blossom and playtime gives way to self-discovery, Laure navigates a world of freedom and tension that arises from living between gender expressions in a society still learning how to respond.
On this day dedicated to the power of independent and artist-driven film, Tomboy reminds us why arthouse theaters matter: they make space for stories that are deeply human.
All ticket holders to our Art House Theater Day titles will be treated to a FREE SMALL POPCORN, courtesy of Shannon Hall Tax!
