Movie Night at the Belcourt: Silent Friend

This Sunday, Chris is organizing a group to see Silent Friend at the Belcourt Theater at 7:45 PM. Tickets are available here. If interested in joining, email office@stmarysnashville.com so we can coordinate seating.

Set in a botanical garden within a medieval German university town, Silent Friend centers on a majestic Ginkgo biloba tree — which can famously live up to 1,000 years — that silently observes humans over the centuries. A tender, enchanting and wholly engrossing exploration of the natural world starring Tony Leung and Léa Seydoux.
