One film. One evening. Tea after dark.
For the first edition of Tea After Dark, Fresno Film Society presents Richard Linklater’s Before Sunrise (1995) — a film about two strangers, one unexpected night, and the conversations that happen when there’s nowhere else you need to be.
Join us at Isla Tea Lounge for an intimate evening screening, special drinks, and a movie made to be experienced together.
Come early. Grab a drink. Find a seat.
THE FILM
Before SunriseRichard Linklater · 1995 · 101 min
Jesse and Céline meet by chance on a train through Europe. With only one night before Jesse has to leave, they step off together in Vienna and spend the hours walking, talking, flirting, and getting to know one another.
Simple in premise and intimate in scale, Before Sunrise has become one of the defining films about connection, timing, and the strange possibility of meeting someone at exactly the right moment.
TEA AFTER DARK
Tea After Dark is a new screening series from Fresno Film Society at Isla Tea Lounge.
Each night pairs a carefully selected film with the atmosphere of Isla — drinks, conversation, and a shared evening at the movies outside of a traditional theater.
For our first screening, we’re starting with Before Sunrise.
