Björnstrand are the ascetic Crusader knight and his cynical squire who return
from the wars after 10 years to find their country ravaged with plague and the
population panicking about the coming apocalypse. The knight is confronted by
the cowled figure of Death, who agrees to a game of chess, and lets the knight
stay alive for as long as he can stave off checkmate. It's an inspired conceit,
a seriocomic masterpiece on its own, which Bergman carries off with absolute
conviction.” (Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian). Go to https://www.facebook.com/events/529523780847981/.

Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics states that vegetarians and vegans

cholesterol levels, lower blood pressure, lower rates of hypertension and type
2 diabetes, and lower body mass indexes, as well as lower overall cancer rates.
The ADA concludes that vegetarian or vegan diets “are healthful, nutritionally
adequate, and may provide health benefits in the prevention and treatment of certain
diseases.” [PETA] Kiss a turkey on Thanksgiving.
