AFTERNOON FILM :The Hundred Foot Journey (PG) ( Title change from Tea with Mussolini)

This is change of title to the advertised Tea with Mussolini as unfortunately this is no longer available to screen. We hope you will enjoy this film instead also chosen by The Friends of Bishop’s Castle Library. 7.3 IMDB Drifting through Europe after fleeing political violence in India that killed the family restaurant business and their mother, the Kadams arrive in France. Once there, a chance auto accident and the kindness of a young woman, Marguerite, in the village of Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val inspires Papa Kadam to set up a Indian restaurant there. Unfortunately, this puts the Kadams in direct competition with the snobbish Madame Mallory’s acclaimed haute cuisine establishment across the street where Marguerite also works as a sous-chef, resulting in an escalating rivalry that threatens to go too far.

Glasgow residents abandon their daily routines to gather on Kenmure Street after learning authorities plan to deport their neighbours, sparking an impromptu grassroots movement. 7.8IMDB “community triumphs in inspiring retelling of 2021 Glasgow protest. Emma Thompson voices the anonymous ‘Van Man’ in a documentary about local people standing their ground against heavy-handed immigration enforcement.” The Guardian In May 2021, a UK Home Office dawn raid triggers one of the most spontaneous and successful acts of civil resistance in recent memory. In Pollokshields, Scotland’s most diverse neighbourhood, hundreds of residents rush to the streets to stop the deportation of their neighbours. Winner: Sundance World Cinema Documentary Special Jury Award for Civil Resistance Neighbours and activists rush to surround an immigration van detaining two residents in Scotland’s most diverse community. Everybody to Kenmure Street is an intense, ground-level, and ultimately joyous account of the standoff with the police and the UK Home Office.

Documentary Film: Our Land

TICKETS ON SALE SOON Our Land seamlessly juxtaposes the two sides of the debate around our access to nature, giving voice to the different perspectives: those fighting for greater access to the countryside and the landowners who claim to be stewards of the land. Blending history with an eye on the future, Our Land charts the conflict, exploring the complex issues of access, custodianship and conservation. Articulately presenting arguments from both sides, the film challenges age-old beliefs around property that have shaped our relationship with the land for over a thousand years. And as the battle for nature continues the film asks the vital question, who truly has the right to roam? 6.6 IMDB : A journey over the walls that divide us, to explore the age-old debate of land and power, amid the fight for greater access to nature. Our Land Trailer
