Due to massive demand, a 3 pm screening of Little Lorraine has been added on July 30th, 2026!

The Unama’ki / Cape Breton Film Festival kicks off with a screening of the hit movie Little
Lorraine directed by Andy Hines and starring Stephen Amell, Stephen McHattie, Sean Astin,
and J Balvin. Inspired by the folk song Lighthouse in Little Lorraine by Nova Scotia musician
Adam Baldwin — which itself was inspired by local stories — this thrilling drama of a coastal
fishing town embroiled with an international cocaine smuggling ring was filmed in Cape Breton
and celebrated by audiences near and far.

This smash hit sold out theatres in Sydney for weeks. Come see it on the “big screen” right
here at the Strathspey Performing Arts Centre!

Tickets are $15 plus Eventbrite fees. Proceeds support the new Unama’ki / Cape Breton Film Festival scheduled to
take place September 25–27, 2026, at the Inverness County Centre for the Arts (ICCA).
The inaugural Unama’ki / Cape Breton Film Festival will celebrate the best of local and
international cinema that has meaningful connections to this island. Anchored at ICCA in
Inverness, Nova Scotia, the festival will engage audiences and filmmakers in a multi-day
celebration featuring film screenings, panels, workshops, and Q&A sessions.
