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.
Thelma Post is a 93-year-old grandmother who loses $10,000 to a con artist on the phone. With help from a friend and his motorized scooter, she soon embarks on a treacherous journey across Los Angeles to reclaim what was taken from her.
After living life on the edge in London, Rona attempts to come to terms with her troubled past. She returns to the wild beauty of Scotland’s Orkney Islands where she grew up, hoping to heal.
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.
