Sudbury Indie Cinema is a not-for-profit co-op incorporated in 2014. We bring world-class independent cinema to Northern Ontario on a year-round basis. We are mission-driven, rather than profit-driven. We select high-caliber, laudable films that give voice to lesser-heard perspectives on the big screen. We actively support other arts organizations, grassroots not-for-profits and support local homegrown filmmakers.
Originally, we formed as a community response to the growing monopoly of Hollywood blockbusters on a shrinking number of large screens, back in summer 2013. Just a year and a half ago, we opened at our own 180-seat cinema in early 2019 at 162 Mackenzie St side entrance.
Having closed to help contain the spread of COVID-19 on March 16th 2020, we are now delighted to partner with generous, community-minded boutique distributors like levelFilm to continue to bring the best in new cinema to our supporters until such time as restrictions are lifted and we can again screen from our own venue.
Thank you for supporting Sudbury Indie Cinema through our virtual cinema screenings, we so appreciate this.
Jimmie Fails dreams of reclaiming the Victorian home his grandfather built in the heart of San Francisco. Joined on his quest by his best friend Mont, Jimmie searches for belonging in a rapidly changing city that seems to have left them behind. As he struggles to reconnect with his family and reconstruct the community he longs for, his hopes blind him to the reality of his situation.
A wistful odyssey populated by skaters, squatters, street preachers, playwrights, and other locals on the margins, The Last Black Man in San Francisco is a poignant and sweeping story of hometowns and how they’re made—and kept alive—by the people who love them.
