Stories in the dust
Stories in the Dust

The sun beats down on two travellers, journeying across a mysterious land in a contraption they've built themselves. They sing, play games, and tell stories inspired by a collection of precious things they've gathered from a time gone by. With live music and puppetry, Stories in the Dust is a funny, heartfelt and hopeful eco-fable that takes you to another world. A world where an ancient book guides your way, a drop of rain changes everything and a mighty lion holds its secrets in an old clay pot. Will our intrepid explorers make it? They're full of ideas and full of hope but dangerously low on baked beans. 'Elegant engaging eco-fable' **** The Reviews Hub. Ideal for ages 5-12 but suitable for all the family.

Cardinal Lawrence (Fiennes) is tasked with running the covert process after the unexpected demise of a beloved Pope. But once the world’s most powerful Catholic leaders have gathered and are locked together in the Vatican halls, Lawrence finds himself at the centre of a conspiracy, with an incendiary secret that could shake the very foundation of the Church. “An entertainingly juicy adaptation of Robert Harris’s novel” ★★★★ The Guardian

ArchitectonU

The latest film from master documentarian Victor Kossakovsky (Gunda, Aquarela). Architecton is an epic, intimate, and poetic meditation on architecture and how the design and construction of buildings from the ancient past reveal our destruction — and offer hope for survival and a way forward. Through Kossakovsky’s lens, the grandeur and folly of humanity and its precarious relationship with nature posits two urgent questions: how do we build, and how can we build better, before it’s too late?
