Watch Hyena Road for free on Remembrance Day!

By Alexandra Heilbron on November 9, 2015 | 9 Comments


Hyena RoadCanadian film distributor Elevation Pictures is offering free admission at select theatres this Remembrance Day (Wednesday, November 11) to watch Hyena Road: written, directed by and co-starring Paul Gross.

Hyena Road opened across Canada on October 9 and had the biggest opening for a Canadian film this year to date. The film will be available on DVD/Blu-ray and On Demand in early 2016. It stars Rossif Sutherland as a Canadian sniper in the heart of Taliban territory in Afghanistan.

The film’s charitable partner, Wounded Warriors Canada (WWC), which specializes in supporting Veterans and their families who are living with operational stress injuries, is supporting the screenings to create additional awareness. The partnership is intended to help educate and inform the public about the challenges facing our Canadian Armed Forces members, Veterans and their families who return from operations.

There will be late matinee screenings at select Cineplex Entertainment locations and 4:00 p.m. screenings at select Landmark Cinema locations, with tickets available at the box office.

    It’d be great to see it on November 11th.

    I missed it on its short run in Saskatoon, SK. I was hoping to see if on Remembrance Day, but it isn’t showing here. My friends have seen it and strongly recommend it, so I’ll have to wait for the DVD.

    I’m an Air Force veteran from the States who took the opportunity to see this film while visiting Kamloops, BC. I believe Hyena Road presents a fairly accurate account of the conditions and realities of serving in Afghanistan as previously described to me by people who served there. It is a must see!

    Thank you Paul and Wounded Warriors for putting this out there, PTSD is a very deceptive and misunderstood disease, I work as a first responder in a rural area of our great country and my wife and I both have/are experiencing this disease of which we are seeking help for and working through. Keep up the good, truly good work you are doing, God bless

    I was disappointed when we showed up at the theatre and after waiting 15 minutes in line were told it was sold out. My husband is an injured veteran and it took everything for him to come out of his house to go to the theatre. He doesn’t like being in a crowded place. He doesn’t like people. He really wanted to see this movie as we have been a part of other Wounded Warriors Canada events. Why was there only one theatre and one showing? Why weren’t veterans given first choice to see the movie? We weren’t the only veteran couple that left the theatre disappointed.
