Dead of Winter is a Minnesota-set thriller starring Emma Thompson as Barb, a grieving widow who becomes an unlikely hero when she discovers a young woman, Leah, being held captive by a desperate couple (Judy Greer and Marc Menchaca) in a remote, snowbound cabin.
The film blends Fargo-style tension with a “taken” premise, as the resourceful Barb tries to rescue the girl despite being stranded without phone service during a blizzard.
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.
