Dir. Mike Leigh | 2024 | 97 mins | English
Legendary filmmaker Mike Leigh and Cornwall Film Festival Patron returns to the contemporary world with a fierce, compassionate, and often darkly humorous study of family and the thorny ties that bind us.
Reunited with Leigh for the first time since multiple Oscar-nominated Secrets and Lies, the astonishing Marianne Jean-Baptiste plays Pansy, a woman wracked by fear, tormented by afflictions, and prone to raging tirades against her husband, son, and anyone who looks her way. Meanwhile, her easygoing younger sister, played by Michele Austin (Another Year), is a single mother with a life as different from Pansy’s as their clashing temperaments - brimming with communal warmth from her salon clients and daughters alike.
This expansive film from a master dramatist takes us into the intensities of kinship, duty, and the most enduring of human mysteries: that even through lifetimes of hurt and hardship, we still find ways to love those we call family.
Tickets: £13.00/£10.50/£8.50
A £1 Poly Fund payment is added to each ticket sold.
Please be aware films will start at the advertised time, we rarely show adverts and usually show under 5 minutes of trailers.
