Islands (15)

Between drinking sessions and one-night stands, washed-up tennis pro Tom (BAFTA nominee Sam Riley) clings to a job coaching holidaymakers at a hotel in Fuerteventura. When an enigmatic English couple arrive, their presence sets off a chain of events that leads to a mysterious disappearance.  A quiet highlight of this year’s Berlinale, 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.

Tickets for our regular screenings are £5 (£1 child/student) available on the door or in advance from the Buxton Opera House box-office
