Welcome to Keswick Film Club

"As cinema, 'The Voice of Hind Rajab' is formally extraordinary, superbly acted, beautifully shot, and shaped and edited with rare urgency" - Leila Latif, Little White Lies. 

Another Cannes prize winner for you, the Grand Prize went to Sentimental Value and the film also has 8 BAFTA and 9 Oscar nominations. The BAFTA Awards are taking place the same evening as our screening so you'll be able to find out what it won after the film.

It's a movie that sneaks up on you like great fiction, blending theme and character in a way that allows it to live in your mind after you see it, rolling around what it means to both the people in it and your own life" - Brian Tallerico, RogerEbert.com.

Another Members' Choice this Sunday with Rental Family. The 'dicey premise' is an out-of-work American actor, Phillip (Brendan Fraser), living in Japan, is offered a job: being hired out to pretend to be a friend or a family member - his first role is to be a mourner at a funeral. Why is he doing this? Because in Japan this actually happens! The comedy is very real, but so is the pathos - why would anybody hire someone to pretend to be their groom at a wedding..?

The first of our BAFTA and Oscar nominated Best Films Not In The English Language is IT WAS JUST AN ACCIDENT, the latest and many are saying one of the best films from Jafar Panahi.

“It's a beautifully-written and executed work, one of Panahi's most formally straightforward yet powerful, gripping and generous.” - David Jenkins, Little White Lies
