The Woman’s Club of Minneapolis 410 Oak Grove St, Minneapolis, MN 55403 6 p.m. – Cash bar 7 p.m. – Intro by Dr. Steven Rousey Movie begins (90 minutes) Like most inquisitive boys, 12-year old Sam wants to know about UFOs, horror movies, ghosts, and girls. Sam also has leukemia, and although the adults in his life don’t want him to dwell on it, Sam wants to know everything about his disease and death, a possibility he might face. Together with his best friend, Felix, he embarks on a "scientific investigation" with questions, observations, evidence, reflections, and lists of all the things he wants to do someday - like breaking a world record, flying in a blimp, kissing a girl for the first time, and experiencing what it’s like to be a teenager. In this poignant yet ultimately uplifting tale, Sam and his family face the immensity of an uncertain future with love, humor, and a touch of the unexpected. Starring Ben Chaplin (The Truth About Cats and Dogs, The Thin Red Line, The Remains of the Day), Greta Scacchi (The Player, Emma, Jefferson in Paris) and Robbie Kay of Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tide
