Join us at PROXY to see the wonder and beauty of life through a child's eyes in Little Amélie or the Character of Rain!

The world is a perplexing, peaceful mystery to Amélie until a miraculous encounter with chocolate ignites her wild sense of curiosity. As she develops a deep attachment to her family’s housekeeper, Nishio-san, Amélie discovers the wonders of nature as well as the emotional truths hidden beneath the surface of her family’s idyllic life as foreigners in post-war Japan.

Come early to grab a good spot! Enjoy a Fort Point Beer, cider, or a new non-alcoholic Villager IPA or KSA Kölsch! We'll also have non-alcoholic tonics from Juice Shop and wine from Hayes Valley neighbor Fig & Thistle and our friend Angel’s movie lovin' sake bar Millay. And make sure to pick up some hot dogs on your way to the show from Hayz Dog, just a block away from PROXY at 364 Hayes! All proceeds from beverage sales support free outdoor cinema at PROXY!

* We recommend bringing seating, blankets, warm layers, and a few friends for comfortable viewing. You can also check out our tips for enjoying movies outside at PROXY.
