Northumberland Film Sundays
Mission Statement
We are a group of film lovers dedicated to offering our community a broad range of movies not otherwise available on our local big screens.
We select films from a menu of contemporary "hot picks" offered by "The Circuit", a division of the Toronto International Film Festival.
We are a not-for-profit group and periodically we will make contributions to Northumberland County charities when a cash surplus permits.
Films are shown at the Rainbow Cinemas at the Northumberland Mall in Cobourg, Ontario at 4.00 pm on selected Sundays. We also produce a Film Festival on a weekend in January - at the same venue. More on the Festival here.
The remaining films in the 2020 Spring Series have now been cancelled
because of the Covid-19 Virus restrictions.
If you have a series package (Tickets for all films in the series), you can choose either a refund or you can exchange the unused tickets for the next replacement series. To exchange, simply come to the NFS desk at the foot of the escalator after 3:pm on the day of the first film - watch this site for dates and the program. For a refund, please email your request with your name and where you bought the package to refund@northumberlandfilm.com. This information has already been emailed to everyone on the NFS Mailing list.

Spanning over a decade from the early 1950s through to the mid-60s, Novitiate is about a young girl's first initiation with love, in this case with God. Raised by a non-religious, single mother in rural Tennessee, a scholarship to Catholic school soon finds Cathleen drawn into the mystery and romanticism of a life devoted to the worship and servitude of God. With the dawn of the Vatican II era, radical changes in the Church are threatening the course of nuns' lives. As she progresses from the postulant to the novitiate stage of training, she finds her faith repeatedly confronted and challenged by the harsh, often inhumane realities of being a servant of God. Cathleen finds herself struggling with issues of faith, sexuality, and recent changes in life of the Church.
Leads: Dianna Agron, Margaret Qualley, Julianne Nicholson
Directed By: Margaret Betts

Runtime: 123 minutes
