Our Next Presentation: BIRDS OF PASSAGE
THE CRAMPHORN THEATRE, CHELMSFORD – TUESDAY 21ST JANUARY @ 8PM
This is director Guerra’s follow-up to Embrace of the Serpent (2015). The story begins in the late 1960s, set in windy, arid northern Columbia. A primitive community is shown in its descent from cultural integrity to an environment for drug runners. The beautiful natural world is invoked as marked contrast with the destructive , corrupting effect on family life of the West’s desire for drugs. (see more…)
Our Previous Presentation ‘CUSTODY’
Following the screening of this film, we held our first discussion meeting for several years. This was quite well attended with everyone contributing to quite a lively discussion – we ran out of time and were unable to cover all films shown, so far, this season. We will be looking to hold a second meeting later in the season, probably following our penultimate film, Three Identical Strangers, on May 20.
Your opinion counts
May we encourage you to complete the Response Slips following the showing of each film – feedback (both positive and negative) helps us to decide what types of films to show in future seasons. In addition, you can leave comments for any of the films we have shown via the Discussion page.
