    What happens when you’re ambushed by time? An archaeologist and an architect fight to re-imagine a future after traumatic brain injury leaves them adrift from the people they love.

    Sarah (Rebel Wilson) is an archaeologist who loves her husband Joe (Celyn Jones) but after a traumatic brain injury (TBI) their love is trapped in the past. Toni (Charlotte Gainsbourg) is an architect and loves her partner Gwen (Trine Dyrholm) but after a TBI they have been imprisoned in a fifteen-year loop.

    Love is the only thing that keeps them all going but something has changed, and both Sarah and Toni are determined to not let it all unravel as they face their fears of being forgotten by the people they love most.  

    ‘The Almond and the Seahorse’ are the nicknames given to the parts of our brains that lay down new memories and hold on to the old ones.

    According to directors Celyn Jones and Tom Stern, “The Almond and the Seahorse” is a human story, which means funny and sad, and the cast and crew seemed drawn to it for different reasons, be it personal experience or an emotional pull to the work but all wanted to be there.

    “We were able to make something positive for the world during a difficult time and that feels good. You don’t have to have been affected by TBI to understand or relate to the film because it is a story that could and does happen to any of us. It is a simple story about surviving love and being alive,” the directors added.

    “The Almond and The Seahorse” will be shown at the Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatre Dec. 16-22. Showtimes will be 3:30 p.m. on Friday, Saturday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Dec. 16, 17, 20 and 21; and 6:30 p.m. on Sunday, Monday and Thursday, Dec. 18, 19 and 22.

    Tickets are $12, 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.

    City Council Weighs ATV Ban Ordinance Proposal
    By Tommy Acosta
    The Sedona City Council at its May 23, 2023 meeting took no action on a proposed ordinance that would ban all off-road vehicles from being driven on state-owned public roads or streets owned by the city. The ordinance, spearheaded by Sedona Mayor Scott Jablow on the premise that such vehicles pose a risk to the health, safety and welfare of the community, would impose heavy fines to anyone driving the ATVs or OHVs on city streets, including S.R. 179 and S.R. 89A. ATV rental companies have admitted that such vehicles are not intended or designed to be driven on paved roads, yet, in Arizona, they are allowed to do so under Arizona Revised Statute 28-1174 (4B). Opponents against the ordinance argued at the meeting that if adopted the ban would cripple the ATV rental industry in Sedona and cause much hardship to the owners and employees, as it would effectively, as written, destroy their livelihood.
