In small-town Idaho, awkward teen Napoleon Dynamite (Jon Heder) has trouble fitting in. After his grandmother is injured in an accident, his strangely nostalgic uncle, Rico (Jon Gries), shows up to keep an eye on him. With no safe haven at home or at school, Napoleon befriends the new kid, Pedro (Efren Ramirez), a morose Hispanic boy who joins him in launching a campaign to run for class president. Free tots to the first 5 ticket purchasers.

Join us before the movie for a dance competition! Competitors will showcase their best moves to the song "Canned Heat" by Jamiroquai (just like in the movie)! Hosted by Ryan Nelson!
