Father Mother Sister Brother (15)

US, UK, Italy, France, Ireland, Germany

Dir. Jim Jarmusch

This eagerly awaited new film by Jim Jarmusch won the Golden Lion for Best Film at the 2025 Venice Film Festival, and features an impressive cast – Tom Waits, Adam Driver, Indya Moor, Charlotte Rampling, Cate Blanchett, Vicky Krieps and Luka Sabbat. It’s funny, tender and astute, and an intimate study of the universal intricacies of family dynamics.

A triptych divided into chapters set in New Jersey, Dublin and Paris, each story concerns the relationships between adult children, their somewhat distant parents, and each other. Blending remarkable performances with Jarmusch’s wry and idiosyncratic observations of everyday life, the film reminds us that you can choose your friends and your lovers, but you can’t choose your family.

Tickets for this film are £6 (£1 child/student) available on the door or in advance from the Buxton Opera House box-office
