JOJO RABBIT

Wednesday, March 11

1:00pm-3:30pm

Come celebrate the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II and the defeat of the fascists by the Allies while watching this film where the protagonist is a 10-year-old German named Jojo Betzler:

All Jojo wants is to become a Nazi. He turns to his imagination and begins to befriend a wackier version of Nazi Germany's ruler, Adolf Hitler. One day, he finds out that his mother, Rosie, is housing a Jewish girl named Elsa. Despite going directly against his young beliefs, he has no choice but to keep quiet for his and his family's safety. Soon, he and his imaginary friend begin to see the world differently. Starring Roman Griffin Davis, Scarlett Johanssen, Rebel Wilson, Sam Rockwell, and Taika Waititi. Directed by Taika Waititi. (This is a first showing as the original date in September, 2025 had been canceled.)
