Ceremony[Update June 15: BIFF has rescheduled this screening to next Wednesday, June 22, 6.30pm at BUEI Tradewinds Auditorium. For those who have bought advance tickets – they will be valid next week or BIFF can organise a refund.]

Bermuda International Film Festival (BIFF) will host a screening of “Ceremony” on June 16, 2011, at 6:30 p.m. as part of its monthly film series, BIFFlixs.

The film will be shown in the Tradewinds Auditorium at Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute (BUEI) on Crow Lane in Hamilton.

Sam Davis (Michael Angarano, Almost Famous) convinces his former best friend Marshall (Reece Thompson, Dreamcatcher) to spend a weekend with him to rekindle their friendship at an elegant beachside estate owned by a famous documentary filmmaker Whit (Lee Pace, Pushing Daisies, Soldier’s Girl).

But it soon becomes clear that Sam is secretly infatuated with the filmmaker’s fiancee, Zoe (Uma Thurman, Kill Bill Vol 1 & 2, Pulp Fiction), and that his true intention is to thwart their impending nuptials. As Sam’s plan begins to unravel, he is forced to realize how complicated love and friendship can be.

A charming romantic comedy debut by director Max Winkler, who “…spins it fast and keeps it on track, delivering a pleasant diversion that’s refreshingly free of cynicism, full of vibrancy and ultimately, a curiosity about what he will do next” – IFC.com.

Ceremony is executive produced by Jason Reitman the Academy Award nominated director behind such modern day classic films as Thank You For Smoking, Juno and Up In the Air.
