Directed by Bradley Charlton | UK | 2022 | 1h 33m | Starring Melanie Revill, Charlotte Reidie, Tom Metcalf, Georgina Voaden, Gary Raymond

A young woman appears at a sickly older woman’s home in order to assist her. After a hostile first encounter and despite misgivings from both, the two slowly open up to one another and form an unexpected bond. However, their affinity is short lived when harsh words are spoken and buried memories resurface. Matters then spiral out of control as the the older woman struggles to accept the absence of the young woman.

This one-off screening is a UK Premiere with the film’s director in attendance. Attendees will receive a free poster and booklet about the making of the film.

Plan your visit

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!
