Based on the acclaimed novel from the "Wonder" series, when a boy is expelled from school for bullying, his grandmother finally reveals her own story of courage that occurred during her youth in Nazi-occupied France, where a boy shelters her from Nazi capture and the boy's mother risks everything to keep her safe. (Rated PG-13) The Associated Press calls it, "A good-hearted film that might have you shedding a few tears," while Screen Rant calls it, "Emotionally resonant... with strong performances and historical importance." Admission is $3 for the public, $2 for ISU staff and children under 12, and free for ISU students with a Bengal ID.  Note - People can also vote on next semester's movies, watching trailers right after the first show and right before the second show.
