A reminder that we start at 5.30 this week, as the Alhambra is showing La Boheme during the afternoon. Then we have two films for you! In case you are worried just how long this will go on, both are short, so we should still finish by about 7.20pm.
We start by showcasing a new short, animated film, 'THE FELL WE CLIMB', produced by young Cumbrians in collaboration with mentors from Anti-Racist Cumbria, based on their own experiences of "what it's like growing up in Cumbria if you aren’t white". The film will be introduced by Keswick school pupil Millie Williams, and lead animator, Lou Kneath of +3K Animation. This took the best part of a year to produce and should be interesting from both a 'black lives matter' perspective and as a great way to support young talent.
The film is about 15 minutes long so we should be into the main feature, QUEEN OF GLOR' by 6.00. One of the highlights of the current programme, this film is 'a dry comedy' about the problems of Ghanaian people living in New York so they slot together very well.
