| Monday 18/8/25 | The Last Journey (PG) | Well known Swedish TV filmmaking duo embark on a trip to France aiming to rekindle the zest for life of Filip’s ailing and pessimistic 80-year-old father Lars. They drive him to the French coastal town where they used to spend their holidays as children in an iconic classic car like the one they had then. As well as being a much-loved dad, Lars was an inspiring teacher of French and archival audio and video clips are used, along with 8mm home movie material and photos, to suggest something of what those original holidays were like. A funny but touching road movie to open Buxton Film’s summer/autumn season. |
| Monday 25/8/25 | Red Path (15) | Featuring remarkable performances from its young cast, this is brilliant filmmaking and an indelible snapshot of the impact of conflict on children. Based on a true story and rooted in the turbulent reality of rural Tunisia, the film follows 13-year-old Ashraf, a young shepherd, coming to terms with a tragedy at the hands of bandits while out in the mountains with his cousin. Ashraf returns home alone and finds himself struggling to cope with the psychological aftermath while his family strives for justice. Highly recommended. |
