Victoria and Abdul (PG) biography/drama/history on Monday, January 29th at 7:30pm.

This is the extraordinary true story of an unexpected friendship in the later years of Queen Victoria’s (Judy Dench) remarkable rule. When Abdul Karim, a young clerk travels from India to participate in the Queen’s Golden Jubilee, he finds favour with the Queen. The two forge a devoted alliance that her inner circle attempts to destroy. As the friendship deepens, the Queen begins to see a changing world through new eyes and joyfully reclaims her humanity.

A possible New Year’s resolution:

“I am only one;
but still
I am one.

I cannot do everything,
but still
I can do something.

I will not refuse
to do something
I can do.”

– Helen Keller

Wishing you all a very happy and prosperous New Year
