The Gravedigger’s Wife12A
On the outskirts of Djibouti City, a gravedigger works long hours to make ends meet and to help raise $5,000 to pay for his wife’s kidney treatment. Winner of Best Film at the African Movie Academy Awards and the first Somali film submitted to the Oscars, Khadar Ayderus Ahmed’s poetic romance centres on a couple facing impossible loss and the lengths one will go for their loved ones.

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!
