Dinner (potluck) and a movie

DENMARK — "Babette’s Feast," which took the 1987 Oscar for best foreign film, will be shown Sunday, August 5 at 6 p.m. at the Denmark Arts Center, 50 West Main St. in Denmark village. Suggested donation is $5 plus a dish to share.

A French woman, Babette, flees her country’s civil war and lands in a small seacoast village in Denmark, where she comes to work for two spinsters, devout daughters of a puritan minister. After many years, Babette unexpectedly wins a lottery, and decides to create a real French dinner – which leads the sisters to fear for their souls.

In the spirit of this film, it is asked that each one bring a dish to share, and together all will feast!
