Àma Gloria12A
Six-year-old Cléo adores her nanny Gloria more than anything. When Gloria suddenly has to return home to Cape Verde to care for her own children, she invites Cléo to visit and make the most of their last summer together. This heartbreaking coming-of-age story delves into themes of class, culture, and race told through the eyes of a child, showcasing a remarkable performance by young actor Louise Mauroy-Panzani.
Reviews
‘Àma Gloria is a small-scale film, barely over 80 minutes, but it leaves an almighty impression. Everything is so unforced and effortlessly convincing.’
★★★★
Cath Clarke, The Guardian
‘The mixed media technique cuts through the film’s naturalism to bring forth something felt and ineffable, akin to the rich, vivid worlds within children’s imaginations, as well as the haziness with which we recall childhood memories.’
★★★★
Marina Ashioti, Little White Lies

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!
