Great Freedom18
In post-war Germany, Hans is repeatedly re-incarcerated under the rule of Paragraph 175, a law that criminalised homosexuality. Told over the course of decades, the lives of inmates intertwine in this moving tale of survival, liberation, and desire. Winner of the Jury Prize in Un Certain Regard at Cannes, Sebastian Meise’s tender prison drama features a mesmerising performance by Franz Rogowski (Transit).
Reviews
‘The power of Sebastian Meise’s subdued prison drama comes not from big, brash moments but from subtle details.’
★★★★
Wendy Ide, The Observer
‘It’s a powerful role for Rogowski, one of the most compelling actors working today’
★★★★
Lillian Crawford, Little White Lies

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!
