Peterborough Arts Cinema returns at new venue

After a short break away, Peterborough Arts Cinema returns with the first of three films on April 23, all of which will be at a new venue – the city centre Wildwood restaurant.

The restaurant's cinema was used for the screening of Shine back in February and received very positive feedback.

The programme of films looks like this:

The Choral - tonight at 7.00pm

1916. As war rages on the Western Front, the Choral Society in Ramsden, Yorkshire has lost most of its men to the army. The Choral’s ambitious committee, determined to press ahead, decides to recruit local young males to swell their ranks. They must also engage a new chorus master, and despite their suspicions that he has something to hide, their best bet seems to be Dr. Henry Guthrie (Ralph Fiennes) – driven, uncompromising, and recently returned from a career in Germany.

The Spin - May 7 at 7.00pm This sweet and uplifting Irish road movie from filmmaker Michael Head packs in the laughs as it follows Dermot (Brenock O’Connor) and Elvis (Owen Colgan), two music lovers who run a struggling record shop in Omagh, Northern Ireland. Facing an unpaid rent bill and their vicious landlord Sadie (Derry Girls’ Tara Lynne O’Neill), who’s eager to get them out of her building, the pair stumble across a deal too good to be true: rare, vintage records of blues legend Robert Johnson for sale in Cork at a knock-down price. If they can make it to the other end of Ireland in time, then maybe they could get the rare vinyl, and save the shop….

The Ice Tower - May 21 at 7.00pm Teenager Jeanne dreams of a life beyond her orphanage in a snowy mountain village. Carried by her desire to escape, she flees and takes refuge in a film studio housing a production of The Snow Queen. It’s here that she first encounters Cristina, the star playing the title role.
