Event Description:
The last in ArtStart’s WWI Film Series, Academy Award nominee for Best Foreign Film, Joyeux Noel, is a fictionalized account of an actual event occurring in December 2014 when French, British and German troops came out of the trenches to share a moment of Christmas. Critic Roger Ebert wrote, “…its sentimentality is muted by the thought that this moment of peace actually did take place, among men who were punished for it, and who mostly died soon enough afterward. But on one Christmas, they were able to express what has been called, perhaps too optimistically, the brotherhood of man.” Donations at the door. Cash bar.
