Itinerary:

The Immigrant is a 2013 American drama film directed by James Gray, starring Marion Cotillard, Joaquin Phoenix, Jeremy Renner and Angela Sarafyan.

Ewa Cybulski (Cotillard) and her sister Magda (Sarafyan) emigrate from Poland to the United States in 1921. Upon reaching Ellis Island, doctors discover Magda has tuberculosis and the sisters are separated while Magda is quarantined. Suddenly alone in a fast and dangerous city, the beautiful Ewa is approached by nefarious and charming Bruno Weiss (Phoenix). After agreeing to help care for Ewa in her time of need, he forces her into prostitution. Ewa allows herself to do things that violate her Catholic faith, all in the hope of surviving in America and being reunited with her sister. When Bruno’s hated cousin, the slick illusionist and entertainer Orlando (Renner), turns his attentions to Ewa, it sets in motion a fateful cycle of rivalry, violence, and (possible) redemption.

Meet in the lobby of the Garneau Theatre at 6:45pm for the 7:00pm showing.
