Cost: $10 for everyone Docteur?/ A Good Doctor? (2019) M 90 minutes Comedy French with English subtitles A feel-good Christmas film unlike you’ve ever seen before... A Good Doctor follows Serge, the only emergency doctor making home visits on a busy Christmas Eve in Paris. While rushing to the bedside of his next patient, he accidentally hits a delivery driver, Malek, with his car. Serge’s back is injured in the process, placing him out of action for the remainder of his shift. Taking advantage of Malek’s kind-hearted nature and eagerness to help - Serge sees an opportunity, why not let Malek step into his shoes for the night? - Limelight Distribution C'est le soir de Noël. Les parisiens les plus chanceux se préparent à déballer leurs cadeaux en famille. D'autres regardent la télévision seuls chez eux. D'autres encore, comme Serge, travaillent. Serge est le seul SOS-Médecin de garde ce soir-là. Ses collègues se sont tous défilés. De toute façon il n'a plus son mot à dire car il a pris trop de libertés avec l'exercice de la médecine, et la radiation lui pend au nez. - Allo-Cine |

Association Française de Hawke's Bay has a number of events that we run each year. We are a charity with volunteers but we are always in need of extra people to help run our events. Many of our volunteers are not committee members like Ann and Belinda who co-ordinate the Conversation Evenings and Sandy who helps with Eventfinda advertising. Contact Ian for further information as to how you could help at or with an event.
