Directed by Constance Meyer | France | 2021 | 1h 35m | French w/ English subtitles | Starring Gérard Depardieu, Déborah Lukumuena, Lucas Mortier, Megan Northam

A cynical, ageing actor must hire a new assistant when his former right-hand man and only friend takes a leave of absence for several weeks.

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!
