If you like your cinema with a side of gourmet indulgence, make your way to the Hot Docs Ted Rogers Cinema (506 Bloor St W) for ## The Big Cheese ##. This quirky yet fiercely competitive food documentary follows a scrappy group of American cheesemongers as they travel to Tours, France, to take on the world's elite at the prestigious Mondial du Fromage biennial competition.
Part culinary deep-dive, part epic sports narrative, the film captures the high-stakes drama of international cheese judging, cultural clashes, and the eternal battle against melting dairy under festival lights.
### Elevate Your Movie Night with Cheese Boutique To make this screening a true sensory experience, you can enhance your ticket by pre-ordering an exclusive curated cheese box courtesy of Toronto's legendary Cheese Boutique. Choose between the Canadian Cheese Box ($12 + HST) or the International Cheese Box ($18 + HST), both featuring four distinct cheeses, seasonal fruit, and accompaniments. Note that cheese box pre-orders close 72 hours before showtime, so be sure to secure yours early.
Tickets are $15 for general admission, with special rates for members. Grab a seat in the Annex and prepare to get hungry.
