A Monster Calls is a visually spectacular and unabashedly emotional drama from director J.A. Bayona (“The Impossible”). 12-year-old Conor (Lewis MacDougall) is dealing with far more than other boys his age. His beloved and devoted mother (Felicity Jones) is ill.

Winter Fest 2016 :: A Magical Event at the OC Fair December 16 – January 1st.
