All Stirred Up! (Tous Toqués) – Monday Cinema – 4 pm show

Trail & District Arts Council’s MONDAY CINEMA All Stirred Up! (Tous Toqués) at The Royal Theatre, 1597 Bay Avenue, Trail on Monday, January 27. TWO SCREENINGS at 4 pm AND 7pm.

Near a village located on the border between Quebec and the United States, uncompromising customs officer Sonia (LeBreton) confiscates the contents of the car belonging to Victor (Baer), a French chef working as a kitchen assistant in New York and struggling for recognition.

Over the years Sonia has also alienated many of the villagers with her inflexibility, which has bounced back onto her daughter, Lili-Beth (Fontaine), who bully her because of it.

Sonia regrets her behaviour when her daughter decides to participate in a Junior Chefs contest and so she decides to do whatever it takes to get help from the charming yet exasperating chef and win the community over.

Will this encounter bring an entire village together to move beyond their differences?
