"ACS is thrilled to present an A24 film for the whole family—the highly anticipated 'The Legend of Ochi' as part of our Sneaks Series,” said ACS Managing Director Cade Bethea. “This exclusive screening gives our community the rare opportunity to experience this visionary work before its wide release—perfectly embodying our mission to bring tomorrow's most anticipated films to Arkansas audiences today. Join us to be among the first to witness this extraordinary cinematic journey and continue our tradition of celebrating groundbreaking storytelling from visionary studios like A24."

Variety declares The Legend of Ochi “an awe-inspiring feat of practical magic." Written and directed by acclaimed music video director Isaiah Saxon in his feature debut, the film stars Helena Zengel, Finn Wolfhard, Emily Watson and Willem Dafoe in a tale that is a worthy successor to such fantasy classics as The NeverEnding Story.
