Elio 

Eleven-year-old Elio believes that extraterrestrials are out there and feels he’d fit in better with them. One day, his dream comes true: he's taken to the Communiverse and is mistaken for an ambassador from Earth. This fun, action-packed cosmic misadventure explores themes of loneliness, belonging, grief, loss, family, acceptance, self-discovery, and identity. Elio and his space-alien best friend Glordon are endearing and relatable, and the animation is bright and imaginative. 

Featuring the voice talents of Yonas Kibreab, Remy Edgerly, Zoe Saldana, Brad Garrett, Jameela Jamil, Shirley Henderson, and Matthias Schweighofer. Directed by Madeline Sharafian, Domee Shi, and Adrian Molina. This received an Oscar nomination for Best Animated Feature Film. 

2025 : 98 minutes : Rated PG for some action/peril and thematic elements : Animation

Free tickets will be given to all who attend.
