Next of Kin

Sunday, November 24, 2024 at 7:30 pmYukon Theatre

One of the first films ever presented by the Yukon Film Society (in 1985) AND we were fortunate to also host Atom Egoyan for the screening at The Guild Hall in Porter Creek. So for our 40th anniversary, we invited Atom back to the Yukon to present it again!

Atom Egoyan’s striking debut feature NEXT OF KIN is the story of Peter, catatonically unhappy with his family life and in video therapy with his parents. One day he views the tapes of an Armenian family who years ago guiltily put their infant son up for adoption. Peter decides to present himself to them as their lost son, to act out a role different than the one assigned to him in his own miserable existence.

Director Atom Egoyan in attendance.

Holy moly. One of the ten best movies I've ever seen? It's very possible. Criminally under-seen. If you're seeing this then see this. - SeriousOperator on Letterboxd
