Dir: Kapur Shekhar | 109 mins
Documentary maker Zoe is looking for love. Her dating apps deliver an endless stream of Mr Wrongs, much to her eccentric mother’s dismay.

Little English (12A)
Dir: Pravesh Kumar 2022 | 99 mins
A laugh-out-loud story of a dysfunctional Punjabi family in the pressure cooker life of a terraced suburban home in Slough.
Newly arrived from India, naive Simmy has come to marry the family's eldest son Raj. But he shockingly does a runner, leaving Simmy locked in the house by her domineering mother-in-law.
However, Simmy is smarter than she appears. She soon enlists the support of the family's disgruntled in-laws - including a sugar crazed, diabetic grandpa and dangerous, but hot, brother-in-law, fresh out of jail.
Together they plan Simmy's big escape.
The screening on Wednesday 5 April will include a Q&A with the Creators and Cast including:
Pravesh Kumar (director)
