SUMMARY:The Old Oak + Q&A with Ken Loach
DESCRIPTION:Rumoured to be the final film of acclaimed British director Ken Loach\, The Old Oak is a moving and powerful drama that shows the ways fear and hope can define and drive a community. In a northern former mining town\, pub landlord TJ keeps the pub The Old Oak running thanks to a handful of loyal regulars. He observes their increasing frustrations at the deprivation in their local community\, and the simmering tension that forms around the arrival of several refugee Syrian families who have been housed in the area. That anger is exacerbated when TJ strikes up an unlikely friendship with Yara\, a young Syrian photographer. \nFollowing I\, Daniel Blake and Sorry We Missed You\, Ken Loach completes his ‘North East Trilogy’ in the same highly emotive register\, fearlessly exploring uncomfortably honest stories with a deep compassion for his and screenwriter Paul Laverty’s characters. Heartbreaking\, but never without hope\, The Old Oak is a striking reminder of why Ken Loach is\, and always will be\, one of the UK’s most important filmmakers. \nThe screening will be followed by a live onstage Q&A with Ken Loach. Hosted by Professor Roger Shannon. \nPrice: From £13.50

SUMMARY:SAFAR 2023: The Blue Caftan
DESCRIPTION:Hand-stitched with loving care\, this mature\, resonant drama is the latest from Touzani\, writer-director of 2019’s Adam. It’s set in Moroccan town Salé\, where Mina (Azabal) runs a small shop selling traditional caftans created by her husband\, master tailor Halim (Saleh Bakri). Such an artisanal enterprise is bound to struggle in the modern world\, and further complications arise when Halim\, secretly gay\, finds himself attracted to the shop’s new apprentice Youssef (Ayoub Missioui). \nThe Blue Caftan is an emotionally complex\, richly empathetic depiction of a partnership sustained through storms and challenges\, with Azabal and Bakri exuding a warm\, gently crackling chemistry. Superb performances\, sly humour\, Virginie Surdej’s glowing photography and a strong throughline of social defiance make this a profoundly satisfying pleasure. \n\n\n\n\n\nDuration includes trailers and adverts. Please note that we do not admit latecomers after the main feature has started and we have a limited food & drink policy. See more information about Relaxed Screenings here.
