  • Only The River Flows - Sunday 15th December 5pm

    9 December 2024


    "Detective Ma Zhe wanders through the frames of Wei Shujun's period noir Only the River Flows, smoking cigarettes like carbon monoxide is actually his oxygen, almost always bedecked in his leather coat. These are the trademark symbols of a weary cop who has worked too long and seen too much" - Andy Crump, Paste Magazine.

    "Fittingly, as pure cinema, Only The River Flows is a knockout: eerie and dreamlike" - Danny Leigh, Financial Times

  • About Dry Grasses - Sunday 8th December 5pm

    2 December 2024

    Running over 3 hours is About Dry Grasses just a pretentious, too-long, art-house movie, or a masterpiece? A lot of critics are leaning towards the latter.
    "One of the best movies of this or any other year."- Bilge Ebiri New York, Magazine/Vulture
    "There isn’t a boring frame in the film." - Josh Larsen, LarsenOnFilm
    "It would be a waste to see About Dry Grasses anywhere other than on the largest screen, in the darkest cinema. It not only repays the time, it makes a change of pace nothing less than a moral recalibration." - David Sexton, New Statesman

  • Green Border - Sunday 1st December 5pm

    25 November 2024

    This thriller-cum-political drama takes place in the Green Border - the space between Belarus and Poland where hopeful refugees wait the next stage of their journey into Europe…

    "'Green Border' strikes me as the best and most important film to be released in the U.S. so far this year." - Godfrey Cheshire, RogerEbert.com



  • Here - Sunday 24th November 5pm

    18 November 2024

    This week's film Here is not the new Tom Hanks film of the same name but a much better received film from Belgian director Bas Devos. 

    "[This] gentle, delicate and quietly beguiling movie, a prize winner last year in Berlin, is about love and fate. It crept up on me at its own measured walking pace" - Peter Bradshaw, Guardian.
