The Aurora Film Society brings “The Red Violin” to the screen at The Venue (21 S. Broadway) on July 15th at 7 p.m.
A red-colored violin inspires passion, making its way through three centuries over several owners and countries, eventually ending up at an auction where it may find a new owner. “The Red Violin” greatly employs the use non-linear storytelling to convey a complicated but understandable story. The film also uses high, well-managed production value to create a very believable but imaginative world.
“The Red Violin” is also a historical movie, covering multiple cultures and time periods from the 1680s in Italy to the 1990’s in Montreal. The film encompasses so many different aspects of world culture and history with a throughline connecting it all seamlessly, enhancing the elements of its cinematic properties and making it much more accessible for an audience to spend more time in an otherwise complicated movie.
Join us on July 15th at The Venue. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the film begins shortly after 7 p.m. The screening is open to subscribers and box office ticket holders.
