A Rare U.S. Screening 

The Fostering Social Connection through Queer Cinema grant is proudly sponsoring one of the only theatrical screenings in the United States of Montreal My Beloved (MONTÉAL, MA BELLE), on Sunday, December 6, at the Fountain Theatre. 

Feng Xia, a 53-year-old Chinese immigrant and mother living in Montreal, has spent her life shaped by duty— to her family, her culture, and a loveless marriage. But when she meets Camille, a spirited young Québécoise, a long-buried desire is awakened. In the balmy and joyful Montreal summer, Feng Xia takes the radical step of choosing herself — embarking on a journey of forbidden love and long-overdue self-discovery. Her awakening becomes a profound reckoning with identity, exile, and the steep cost of liberation.

The pre-movie social hour will kick off at 5:00PM. Emcee Senator Carrie Hamblenwill lead a round or two of movie trivia at 5:30, with the film starting at 6:00.

We invite you to join us for a rare U.S. screening of this film, meet new and old friends, and have some trivia fun with our extra special emcee!

The Queer Cinema grant is made possible through funding provided by the Rainbow Fund held within the Community Foundation of Southern New Mexico.
