Presence15
A family of four moves into a new home in a quiet suburban American town. As they attempt to settle in, the house remains cold and uninviting, revealing a litany of problems – from mounting tensions at work to an unsettling, ghostly presence that lingers in the shadows. Oscar-winning director Steven Soderbergh (sex lies and videotape) reimagines the haunted house genre by shifting the perspective to the ghost itself, offering a hauntingly unique and intimate view of a family grappling with unseen and internal struggles.
Reviews
‘Shot entirely from the first-person perspective of a haunting spirit, the slow-burn thriller might have collapsed in less experienced hands, but Soderbergh expertly puts a terrific ensemble through their paces.’

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!
