Reel Pride @ Cinematheque

The Duke of Burgundy Winnipeg Premiere: April 2-5 & April 8 @ cinematheque Proudly sponsored by your Reel Pride Film Festival! Thursday – Saturday, April 2 – 4: 9pm Sunday, April 5: 3pm Wednesday, April 8: 7pm UK, 2014, 104 min. Directed by Peter Strickland Drama British filmmaker Peter Strickland follows his eerie Festival hit Berberian Sound Studiowith this dark melodrama about an amateur butterfly expert whose wayward desires test her lover’s tolerance. Dripping with eroticism and dread, the film chronicles the increasingly intimate relationship between wealthy amateur lepidopterist Cynthia and her newly hired housekeeper, Evelyn. As Cynthia’s demands begin to betray a sadomasochistic streak, Evelyn becomes less a domestic servant than an outright sex slave, submitting to her progressively extreme humiliations with a surprising relish. Watch the TRAILER! Tickets available at the cinematheque box office or online: https://www.winnipegfilmgroup.com/event/the-duke-of-burgundy/2015-04-02/#

Cross-Posting: Weekend Skiing

FRIDAY SKI There will be a special moonlit ski this Friday March 6th at 10:00pm at Birds Hill Park. The group of guys and gals will meet at the Stables/Restaurant and ski the Esker Trail. There will be no carpool for this event. The restaurant will not be open. Esker is a 6.0 km novice rated trail. There is a warming hut along this trail, though the forecasted low is only -10C, so it likely won’t be too cold. Bring hot chocolate anyway!
