Quick synopsis: When a group of hard working guys find out they've fallen victim to a wealthy business man's Ponzi scheme, they conspire to rob his high-rise residence.
Also at the same cinema tonight as a complete contrast, the documentary "Mediums - from one world to another" will be shown at 20:30. The documentary asks the question "Is there life after death?"

Clothing needed for asylum seekers
A reader has sent in the following request: " I am helping to collect winter clothing and other supplies for the asylum seekers in Nyon and Gland. We are looking for clothing in good condition: jeans, trousers, shirts, pullovers, warm jackets, shoes, socks, belts, hats, gloves underclothes (undershirts could be used but underpants should be new), backpacks, book-packs, brief-cases, wallets will all be gratefully received. There are about 130 young men right now (most aged between 18 and 30), with more continually arriving, there's a real and growing need for warm, winter clothes - especially as the Gland group has to be away from their centre during the day. Thank you so much for your support! Please email christine.carey at iprolink.ch
More jazz in Nyon this Friday at the 1306 club. Details on flyer below
