UICA cinema (click for more info)

Support for WYCE comes from UICA.

The UICA Movie Theater shows independent, international, and documentary movies in downtown Grand Rapids - Tuesday through Sunday - year round.

Now screening My Scientology Movie: Inspired by the Church's use of filming techniques, and aided by ex-members of the organization, Louis Theroux uses actors to replay some incidents people claim they experienced as members in an attempt to better understand the way the Church operates. In a bizarre twist, it becomes clear that the Church is also making a film about Theroux. Suffused with a good dose of humor and moments worthy of a Hollywood script, My Scientology Movie is stranger than fiction.
