Ghost Trail15

Two years after his release from a Syrian prison, Hamid has joined an underground network spanning Europe, dedicated to tracking down fugitive war criminals from the Syrian regime. Now based in Strasbourg, he believes he has found the man who once tortured him, and must face him.

Reviews

‘[Jonathan Millet and Adam Bessa’s] combined efforts allow the film to marry some of the best aspects of spy thrillers and slow cinema in a portrait of the ways that wars haunt us long after we escape them.’

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 only show a few adverts – less than most cinemas – and we only play a couple of trailers, so please don’t be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
