Oscar-nominated Rosamund Pike (Gone Girl, Saltburn) is Jessica in the much-anticipated next play from the team behind Prima Facie. Jessica Parks is a smart Crown Court Judge at the top of her career. Behind the robe, she is a karaoke fiend, a loving wife and a supportive parent. When an event threatens to throw her life completely off balance, can she hold her family upright? Writer Suzie Miller and director Justin Martin reunite following their global phenomenon Prima Facie, with this searing examination of modern motherhood and masculinity.
The sophomore feature from the director of the Oscar-nominated Past Lives is a piercingly honest exploration of love and money that is truly captivating. Lucy (Dakota Johnson) is the star matchmaker at a boutique New York agency, and believes love is a numbers game, but her beliefs are put to the test when two potential suitors for her come along at once. Song doesn't reinvent the romcom here. She cleverly sidesteps it.
Preview Screening: Wed 10th 7.00pm. Doors open at 6.00pm with an exclusive drinks reception in The Overlook Bar & Lounge.
Islands is a contemporary, intelligent thriller with noirish undertones and stylistic echoes of Alfred Hitchcock and Patricia Highsmith, stunningly shot against the sun-drenched volcanic landscapes of the Canary Islands.
Sam Riley delivers a career-best performance as a washed-up tennis coach caught up in a strange disappearance in this blisteringly hot noir thriller. A less-than-enthusiastic tennis coach for tourists at an all-inclusive resort in the Canary Islands, Tom spends his evenings drinking himself into abandon. Although his schedule is full for the week, he accepts the son of a sophisticated female guest and soon finds himself spending more time with the boy and his parents. But as peculiar tensions surface, Tom finds himself drawn deeper into their mysterious world. Jan-Ole Gerster’s seductive, slow-burn thriller gradually ramps-up the tension, while Dascha Dauenhauer’s moody score emphasises the film’s fever-dream mood and hints at the unease that threatens Tom’s world.

From Alex Ross Perry, the acclaimed director of Her Smell and Listen Up Philip and a distinctive voice in post-mumblecore cinema, comes an irreverent, genre-bending portrait of the iconic '90s indie rock band Pavement. Premiering at the 2024 Venice Film Festival, Pavements blends authentic archival footage, contemporary documentary moments, an ironic jukebox musical, a satirical Hollywood biopic, and playful mockumentary sequences, brilliantly collapsing the boundaries between reality and fiction.
As Pavement prepare for their sold-out 2022 reunion tour, the film captures surreal behind-the-scenes preparations for a musical adaptation of their songs, a museum dedicated entirely to the band's legacy, and a knowingly clichéd Hollywood biopic starring Joe Keery as frontman Stephen Malkmus.
Interwoven with genuine archival footage and featuring the band members themselves alongside a cast of actors and comedians, Pavements humorously examines fan obsession, myth-making, and the cultural mechanics behind fame. This uniquely layered exploration challenges the traditional way stories about musicians are told with artistry, absurdity and humor, culminating in a refreshingly inventive and endearingly self-aware tribute to an unforgettable band.
Starring Joe Keery, Jason Schwartzman, Tim Heidecker, Kathryn Gallagher, Michael Esper, and Zoe Lister-Jones, and as themselves: Stephen Malkmus, Scott 'Spiral Stairs' Kannberg, Mark Ibold, Steve West, and Bob Nastanovich. Editing by non-fiction innovator Robert Greene (Procession).
