‘The Hummingbird Project’ opens at Cinema Art Theater April 5
Starting Friday, April 5, “The Hummingbird Project,” a suspenseful drama of humanity versus corporate greed, will be playing at the Rehoboth Beach Film Society’s Cinema Art Theater.
In this modern epic, award-winning director Kim Nguyen exposes the ruthless edge of an increasingly digital world. Cousins from New York, Vincent (Jesse Eisenberg) and Anton (Alexander Skarsgård) are players in the high-stakes game of High-Frequency Trading, where winning is measured in milliseconds. Their dream? To build a straight fiber-optic cable line between Kansas and New Jersey, making them millions. But nothing is straightforward for this flawed pair. Anton is the brains, Vincent is the hustler, and together they push each other and everyone around them to the breaking point with their quixotic adventure. Constantly breathing down their necks is their old boss Eva Torres (Salma Hayek), a powerful, intoxicating and manipulative trader who will stop at nothing to beat them at their own game.
Screening times are 1 p.m., Friday, April 5; 3:30 p.m., Sunday, April 7; 1 and 4 p.m., Wednesday, April 10; and 4 and 7 p.m., Thursday, April 11. Admission is $8 for members and $11 for future members. Customers are encouraged to purchase tickets online. If seats are available, tickets can be purchased at the theater starting 30 minutes prior to each screening.
