What the critics said:

“This emotional, raw and quietly powerful documentary started out as a study of how his dad Lawrence came to terms with his son getting ill. The title is a giveaway that the finished article is not that film.”
Cath Clarke, The Guardian

“Red Herring is a film that seeks to defy the expectations of its heavy topic, however steep the odds.”
Miranda Collinge, Esquire

Red Herring is a deeply personal documentary by filmmaker Kit Vincent, who was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer at 24. Vincent turns the camera on the people around him as they come to terms with his illness. The ‘red herring’ here turns out to be Kit’s diagnosis, which serves as a distraction from the more complex truths about family, love and what it means to truly live.

📣 TOMORROW 📣

🎥 Please join us for our February screening where we will be showing showing Felipe Gálvez Haberle’s debut feature film The Settlers.

🎫 Tickets £6 for members £7 for non-members.
🍿 Doors open 7:30pm film starts 8pm

What the critics said:

“It’s a fierce, stark, almost primitive parable of cruelty and power.”
⭐ Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian

“The film is a searing account of the “settling” of Tierra del Fuego, a borderline area where everything was up for grabs, and lawlessness was the only rule. “The Settlers” is not just an account of historical events, it’s a national reckoning with a barbaric past.”

What the critics said

“Torres is deservedly Oscar nominated for best actress in a performance of extraordinary intelligence and emotional complexity.”

⭐ Wendy Ide, The Observer

“Salles is also good at slyly contrasting the brightness of their family life, pre-arrest, with the encroaching government oppression – a timely reminder of how fascist governments take control.”

A political biographical drama starring Fernanda Torres as Eunice, a mother and an activist coping with the forced disappearance of her husband, Rubens Pavia, during the military dictatorship in Brazil from 1964 to 1985. Fernanda Torres gives an outstanding performance as a mother trying to keep her family together and find answers to a great injustice. A powerful and moving film which explores the permanence of love and grief.

This gripping documentary chronicles the lives of Palestinians in Masafer Yatta (West Bank) resisting mass displacement and land appropriation by the Israeli military. Over four tumultuous years (2019 to 2023), the film weaves together handheld footage from Palestinian activist Basel and reporting by Israeli journalist Yuval, forging a powerful, collaborative narrative of resistance, friendship, and unequal power under occupation. By pairing raw visual testimony with cross- cultural collaboration, No Other Land not only informs but also challenges audiences—making it a potent catalyst for conversation on film, humanity, and political resistance.
