The 2009 Swiss Heritage Series of the Turner Hall of Monroe will present "Die Herbstzeitlosen" (The Latebloomers) as the featured film for its annual Swiss Movie Night, 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 27, in the Grand Hall. The funny and heart-warming 86-minute film is in Swiss-German with English subtitles. Legendary Swiss actress Stephanie Glaser plays Martha, who with her three friends cause quite a stir in their conservative little village of Trueb in the Emmen Valley when they start a new business endeavor to help Martha realize a life-long dream. The film was Switzerland's 2008 entry in the Academy Awards category of Best Foreign Film. Doors open at 7 p.m.; admission is a free-will donation.
