Season 10 of Beach Flicks is underway, an event showcasing critically acclaimed films in partnership with the Toronto International Film Festival.
The event now takes place on Thursdays, rather than on the usual Fridays.
On Oct. 24, the 10-time Cesar award nominated French language film Sink or Swim will show at the Eaglecrest Golf Course. The 2018 film tells the story of middle-aged men on the brink of midlife crises who decide to form their local pool’s first-ever synchronized swim team for men.
Karen Roberts, a volunteer organizer for Beach Flicks, described the film as “lovely and fun.”

All nine of the volunteers met in August to go through possible options from TIFF. The club tries to choose a variety of movies for each season.
“It brings a lot of culture to our community,” Roberts said. “We’ve really certainly travelled the world through Beach Flicks.”
Movies take place at the Eaglecrest Golf Course. Doors are at 6 p.m. and show is at 7 p.m. For information on upcoming movies, visit beachflicks.ca.
