Cinema 10 in Potsdam to present “The Breadwinner” March 19

Posted

POTSDAM -- Cinema 10’s film slated for March 19 is the “The Breadwinner,” a 2017 movie filmed in Ireland, Canada and Luxembourg, directed by Nora Twomey.

Based on the best selling novel of the same name, “The Breadwinner” tells the story of a young Afghan girl who, after losing her father, must disguise herself as a boy to provide for her family.

This tale’s stunning animation is matched by its unflinching honesty, inspiring to all ages with its message of hope and empowerment in the face of oppression.

Produced by Angelina Jolie, “The Breadwinner reminds us yet again that the best of animation takes us anywhere at any time and makes us believe,” writes Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times.

The 94-minute film is rated PG-13 for thematic material, including some violent images.

All Cinema 10 films are shown on Monday evenings at 7:15 in the Roxy Theater in Potsdam.

Tickets are $5.50 general admission and $45 per season or $4.50 student/senior and $35 per season.

Cinema 10 is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts.
