I Swear – November 23 | 6:30pm

Kirk Jones
United Kingdom| 2025 | 120m | English | Blue Fox Entertainment | 14A

I Swear is a poised, textured portrait of a life lived against expectation. Anchored by Robert Aramayo’s (Lilies Not For Me, Nocturnal Animals) nuanced turn, the film tracks John Davidson, a Scottish man shaped by the onset of severe Tourette’s syndrome in adolescence and the world’s uneasy gaze. Moving beyond biopic mechanics, the story unfolds through moments of dislocation, misfired intentions, and unexpected solidarity as John navigates family estrangement, social misunderstanding, and his own burgeoning voice. Set between the Border towns of the 1980s and later Glasgow, the film examines the porous border between perception and meaning, between restraint and impulse. With restraint and wry humanity, I Swear observes how identity, dignity, and connection are claimed amid disorder. Inspired by a true story.

Content advisory: Coarse language, sexual language

I Swear won Best Leading Actor from the BAFTA Film Awards in 2026! 🎥

Mile End Kicks – January 11 | 6:30pm

Chandler Levack
Canada| 2025 | 111m | English | Elevation Pictures | 14A

Chandler Levack’s anticipated follow-up to her directorial debut, I Like Movies (TIFF ’22), stars Barbie Ferreira as Grace Pine, a driven though easily distracted 23-year-old music critic. She leaves her parents’ home for a shared apartment in Montréal to devote herself to a book about Alanis Morissette’s Jagged Little Pill for the 33 1/3 series. Instead, she’s swept into the local scene, juggling loft parties, creative ambitions, and a messy romance involving two members of the same band, Bone Patrol. As she takes on work as their publicist, distractions mount and responsibilities pile up.

Through wine-fueled poetry readings and other ill-advised choices, Grace is in the trenches of self-discovery. Mistakes are made and rent is owed, but along the way Mile End Kicks gives audiences a new romantic comedy to fall in love with.

Content advisory: Sexual assault, sexual content, crude content, nudity, coarse language, drug use and mature themes

Mile End Kicks was nominated for seven awards at the Canada Screen Awards in 2026! 🎥

Register online on our website, over the phone, or in person at the Red Deer Museum + Art Gallery. Tickets are also available at the door the day of the movie at the Red Deer Polytechnic Arts Centre Main Stage.

Cost: $15/non-member | $10/member | $5/student
