LAUGHTER WITHOUT BORDERS

A talentless magician from Sweden, sex-crazed robots from Halifax, and Will Ferrell. Need we say more? Take a night off from fretting over global warming, the recession, and your Facebook status to enjoy these comedies from home and abroad.

When the door won't open, a woman calls customer support. Who says good help is hard to find?

Instead of Abracadabra (Istället för Abrakadabra)
While trying to make it as a magician, sweet loser Tomas must live with his parents. He sets out to wow them and their beautiful neighbour Monika with his new act. Patrik Eklund directs Goran Forsmark and Anki Larsson - Sweden's first family of comedy - in this irresistable giggler. "Shimaayyy!"
