Dir: Cathryne Czubek 2021 I 94 mins
True story.
A brick maker in Uganda becomes an internet sensation when he tries his hand at making action movies.
'Czubek treads a delicate line, managing to avoid patronising Nabwana or portraying Hofmanis as a white saviour, and the ending is worthy of Hollywood and Wakaliwood' ★★★★ Times
'It’s nice to see the old tension between selling out and staying pure never goes away in any corner of the film-making world' ★★★★ Guardian

National Theatre Live: Prima Facie (15)
125 mins
Written by Suzie Miller
Directed by Justin Martin
Jodie Comer’s (Killing Eve) Olivier and Tony Award-winning performance in Suzie Miller’s gripping one-woman play returns to cinemas.
Tessa is a young, brilliant barrister. She has worked her way up from working class origins to be at the top of her game; defending; cross examining and winning. An unexpected event forces her to confront the lines where the patriarchal power of the law, burden of proof and morals diverge.
Prima Facie takes us to the heart of where emotion and experience collide with the rules of the game.
Justin Martin directs this solo tour de force, captured live in 2022 during a sold out run at the Harold Pinter Theatre in London’s West End.

Wilding (PG)
Dir: David Allen 2023 | 75 mins
A wonderfully hopeful story of ecological regeneration. At Knepp Castle in Sussex, Isabella Tree and Charlie Burrell abandoned industrial farming practices and allowed nature to ‘rewild’ their 3,500-acre estate.
The first scheme of its kind in Britain, it became one of the most significant rewilding experiments in all of Europe. Knepp is now home to thriving flora and fauna of all kinds.
‘Nature is healing in this soul-enhancing, hopeful ode to the British countryside’ ★★★★ Time Out
We are excited to be joined by Ted Green MBE after the screening on Tues 6 Aug 8pm for a post screening discussion. Ted is the Founder member and President of the Ancient Tree Forum and Honorary Vice President of the International Tree Foundation. Find out more here.
