Little Trouble Girls - Sunday 23rd November 5pm



In Little Trouble Girls we meet shy, introverted,16 year-old Lucija as she joins a Catholic choir where she is befriended by Ana-Marija. Lucija's over-protected life (she has not even been allowed to wear lipstick) is faced by the challenge of growing up like everyone, especially the sexual awakening she is feeling.
"Djukic’s feature debut echoes the sensitivities of CĂ©line Sciamma’s early coming-of-age stories but with a bold, cinematic bent." - Tara Brady, Irish Times

On Falling - Sunday 16th November 5pm


On Falling is our next members' choice - Aurora is a 'picker', pushing a trolley through the warehouse finding items chosen online by people she will never meet, keeping to a pace set by the machine in her hand. She is paid just enough to live on - when her mobile phone need repairing, this is a disaster as she is forced to go without other essentials.
"Carreira’s is the kind of small, still-waters debut that nonetheless confidently sets out its maker’s store for future work -- a clarion call for a new generation of social-realist cinema." - Guy Lodge, Variety

Dying - Sunday 9th November 5pm

We thought we may need to sell Dying as a film worth your while watching - why should you invest three hours of your life watching a miserable film about dying? Well the critics agree that "this is a film that justifies every second" and "has your undivided attention throughout the vividly composed, brilliantly acted chapters of its three-hour runtime. A miracle."
"Matthias Glasner’s Dying might sound like an ordeal, but this rich, novelistic and mordantly funny Berlin film festival prize winner wears its themes and running time lightly.” - Wendy Ide, Observer
