Screening of Swiss film ‘My Friend Barry’ at the iconic Capitol Theatre

Come celebrate with us as the Embassy of Switzerland in Singapore brings everyone together for the grand finale of Swiss Weeks 2026 — a joyful, vibrant evening for families and friends.

Join us for a journey through the Alps with our screening of the movie My Friend Barry at the iconic Capitol Theatre. Set in the late 18th century, the film follows Georg, a young orphan who remains at the legendary Great St. Bernard Hospice while his brother, Alfons, departs to seek a better life on the other side of the Alps. Inspired by real events, this story of loyalty and friendship between a boy and his dog explores the spirit of resilience in Switzerland and honours the legacy of the famous St. Bernard rescue dogs.

Each ticket includes a popcorn and soft drink, while additional food and beverages provided by the Capitol Theatre will be available for purchase.

We look forward to closing the Swiss Weeks 2026 with you and your loved ones!
