The Ants & the Grasshopper12A
Traveling from her village in Malawi to California and the White House, a gifted farmer faces her biggest challenge yet; persuading Americans that climate change is real. Her journey takes her across all the divisions shaping the US as she speaks with climate skeptics and despairing farmers. This thoughtful documentary, ten years in the making, weaves together the most urgent themes of our times: climate change, gender and racial inequality, and the widening gap between the rich and the poor.
Reviews
‘As a film to show young people perhaps, or those just starting to question their thoughts about the climate crisis, this might be an effective consciousness raiser.’
Leslie Felperin, The Guardian

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road. We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We don’t show adverts, just a couple of trailers, so don't be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
