If you are willing to lend an ear, the village is brimming with stories. It may tell you the one about the prominent factory manager who one night dreams in Latin and ditches his career for old books and a telescope. Or the one about the farmer who erects beautiful fences but has a hard time controlling the desires of the flesh, leading to spectacular revenge. And of a mammoth policeman and his wafer-thin son who carves out moorland birds, of a dance at Community Hall, a glorious dinner party and a chiseled rock that can break life’s finely woven thread.

“I vividly remember the hypnotizing effects of reading Jon Kalman’s brilliantly-woven tapestry of anecdotes for the first time,” said Adalsteins. “His lyrical prose and his unique insight into the depths of the human heart made me feel a deep rooted association with all the characters of the seaside village, just like the one I was born and raised in.”

“Summerlight and Then Comes the Night” will be shown at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre Oct. 11-16. Showtimes will be Friday, Oct. 11 at 6:30 p.m.; Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 12 and 13 at 12:30 p.m.; Monday and Tuesday, Oct. 14 and 15 at 7:00 p.m.; and Wednesday, Oct. 16 at 3:30 p.m.

Tickets are $12 general admission, or $9 for Film Festival members. For tickets and more information, please call 928-282-1177. Both the theatre and film festival office are located at 2030 W. Hwy. 89A, in West Sedona.  For more information, visit: www.SedonaFilmFestival.org.
