Master ChengPG

Directed by Mika Kaurismäki | Finland | 2019 | 1h 53m | Finnish & Mandarin w/ English subtitles | Starring Pak Hon Chu, Anna-Maija Tuokko, Lucas Hsuan, Kari Väänänen

The search for a previous acquaintance from Shanghai leads a Chinese chef to a remote Finnish village with his young son. While looking for his friend, he is offered accommodation at a local cafe in return for his help in the kitchen. Mika Kaurismäki’s (The Liar) compassionate drama is a humorous love letter to food and finding connections in far-off places.

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!
