The second screening at the summer Outdoor Cinema in Krzyżowa will take place next Sunday – 9 August and will start a little earlier, at 20.30. This time we will watch the international production of the Swedish director Felix Herngren entitled „The Centenarian Who Climbed Out the Window and Vanished”. It is a combination of a black comedy and an adventure film about a nursing home resident who, on his hundredth birthday, decides to start his life anew.
The screening will take place in the courtyard in front of the palace, which will ensure social distancing. However, remember to take masks or other items of clothing with you to cover your mouth and nose. It is also worth getting warm clothes or blankets, because the evening can be cool and the session will last about two hours. Possible snacks and drinks can be purchased on site.
Participation in the Outdoor Cinema is free.
