Mr. Bones

Talk about an avant-garde provocative film, don't miss "Mr. Bones"!
Ages 13 and up.

Three heroes (Devin, Dionne and Dominique) make their passage
into adulthood and we join them in their turbulent present.
The mystery of "Mr. Bones" is their secret, but their secret can't
stay hidden forever so we see the showdown of their dreams,
regrets, lost loves and ultimate salvation. "Mr. Bones" presents a
stirring tableau of the modern African experience, celebrating the
strength of all relationships, reminding us to take nothing and no
one for granted, and gently teaching us to be thankful for what
we have.
