Brampton Library and City of Brampton are in on the National Canadian Film Day action, inviting movie fans of all ages to watch a free public screening of Bollywood/Hollywood on Wednesday, April 20th at 6:00pm. 

National Canadian Film Day offers Canadians from coast to coast the chance to be exposed to our own great stories and have some FUN! 

We chose Bollywood/Hollywood because it's a funny, family-friendly movie for all Brampton residents to enjoy on the Garden Square big screen, in the heart of this great city.

Where: Garden Square, 1 Theatre Lane, Brampton. Don't forget to bring your lawn chair! This event is happening rain or shine! 

When: 5:00pm - Skype interview with the lm's director Deepa Mehta/ 6:00pm - Bollywood/Hollywood

About the Film: Bollywood/Hollywood: Joyfully subverting the romantic conventions of both cultures, this story follows Rahul, a wealthy South Asian Canadian whose family pressures him to bring a "nice Hindu girl" to his sister's wedding. Instead, Rahul hires Sue (Lisa Ray), a beautiful escort. Naturally, the two end up falling in love—and just as naturally, complications ensue!
