Another Cinema Option for Northumberland via
    The Toronto International Film Festival's Film Circuit.

Northumberland Film Sundays

Mission Statement

We are a group of film lovers dedicated to offering access to a diverse range of films not otherwise available at local cinemas.

We choose our films from the current TIFF FILM CIRCUIT Release Schedule which is comprised of a selected list of films with Canadian distributors and a limited theatrical release pattern.

As part of the Northumberland arts community, NFS aims to present films of high quality which serve to entertain, inform and offer perspectives from the world of contemporary Canadian and International cinema, with a focus on stories and story-telling.

We are a not-for-profit group. We will periodically make contributions to Northumberland County organizations when a cash surplus permits.

Films are screened at Rainbow Cinemas at Northumberland Mall in Cobourg on Sunday afternoons.

Ken Prue, NFS Founder, no longer with us.

It was with great sadness that we heard of the passing of our Founder, Ken Prue.

Northumberland Film Sundays started in 2003 with the first film in November of that year - along the way, Ken was the owner of the Mall Cinema but then moved to operating out of the Loft where he included live shows as well as specialty films including Opera. When he was forced to close the Loft, Ken then produced concerts, mostly Jazz, at Victoria Hall and one of his Concerts was by a friend, Mikal Hasek.

On hearing of Ken's passing, Mikal put a tribute on his Facebook page:

RIP Ken Prue . Died of a broken heart.
Sweet friend. Impresario supremo. Helped me through my trauma. Always there for me and so many more.
Good night sweet prince!
