Experience the raw energy of the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll in EPiC: Elvis Presley in Concert, a spectacular 90-minute documentary-concert film directed by Baz Luhrmann. Serving as the ultimate companion piece to Luhrmann’s 2022 biopic, this cinematic event bypasses traditional modern interviews to let Elvis tell his own story. Built entirely from restored, newly discovered archival footage, the film offers an intimate and electrifying look at Presley’s legendary Las Vegas residencies during the peak of his 1970s showmanship.
Audiences are taken directly behind the scenes into candid backstage rehearsals before being thrust into the high-octane atmosphere of his live performances. The film highlights Elvis not just as an icon, but as a masterful musical director steering his band through powerhouse renditions of classics like “Burning Love” and “Polk Salad Annie.” Blending deep gospel, country, and blues roots with unmatched stage presence, this is a must-see big-screen celebration for lifelong fans and newcomers alike.

We screen ten monhtly films a year, from September through June. The current licensing landscape makes it difficult to plan for/book films too far in advance, so we’ve adopted a month-to-month model. This allows us to keep quite current in our programming. Any upcoming films displayed below.
The Ballad of Wallis Island follows Charles (Tim Key), an eccentric lottery winner who lives alone on a remote island and dreams of getting his favorite musicians, Mortimer-McGwyer (Carey Mulligan and Tom Basden) back together. His fantasy quickly turns into reality when the bandmates and former lovers accept his invitation to play a private show at his home on Wallis Island. Old tensions resurface as Charles tries desperately to salvage his dream gig.
An account of the life of John Davidson, a Tourette syndrome campaigner who grew up with the condition in the 1980s Scotland, at a time when it was little known and misunderstood.
We aim to offer a programme that covers a broad range of genres and interests, in the hopes of appealing to as wide an audience as possible.
As well as our regular screenings, we also work within the community to offer additional screening events–click below to find out more.
Our final four films for March-June will be announced at our February screening of Moonage Daydream.
