Thursday, October 22, 6:30 PM Sunday, November 1, 7:45 PM Jack Auen, Kevin Walker | USA | 2026 | 99m While writing a monograph on historical theories of memory, Béatrice (Anne Laure Sellier), a respected academic, becomes beguiled by the allegedly true story of the Chronovisor, an occult device said to reproduce visuals from any point in history on a TV screen. Her obsession with the mysterious machine drags her from her Upper East Side apartment through the depths of New York City's hidden libraries, to the edge of a breakthrough. ""Chronovisor," an eerie, evocative work of pseudo sci-fi horror, feels less like a film constructed by people and more like one excavated from the dark recesses of a nightmare." - Chase Hutchinson, Seattle Times "The construction here operates at its own frequency, and builds to an eerie climax that extends beyond the books. When it gets there, it becomes a unique little marvel..." - Brandon Yu, New York Times Tickest $12 ($11.40 at the door if available) Thursday, October 22, 6:30 PM tickets Sunday, November 1, 7:45 PM tickets Tagged coming soon
