UICA - Eternity (click for more info)

Support for WYCE comes from UICA. 


The UICA Movie Theater shows independent, international, and documentary movies in downtown Grand Rapids six days a week, year-round. 

Now playing, At Eternity's Gate

This film is a journey inside the world and mind of famed-but tormented- artist, Vincent van Gogh. Van Gogh is frequently credited with creating some of the world's most beloved masterpieces. 

At Eternity's Gate is less biography, more imagined scenes based on van Gogh's letters and common agreement about events in his life covering his final years in Arles, France, painting masterworks of the natural world that surrounds him. 

At Eternity's Gate is now playing at UICA. Find showtimes at uica.org
