This searching, Palme d’Or-winning moral dilemma pits preaching conservative Christian parents against a holier-than-thou liberal system. An evangelical family move to a small Norwegian town. Their seemingly placid adjustment is shattered when suspicions around their children’s wellbeing place the parents under severe scrutiny. Cristian Mungiu ( 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days ) masterfully crafts an ambivalent social drama that raises fundamental questions and avoids easy answers, asking us to ponder how unbiased our own sense of empathy is.

SCREEN/PRINT: Rocky

Queen's Film Theatre · South Belfast · Film
Take a ringside seat to Rocky 's big screen return, in celebration of its 50th anniversary, 4K restored. Each attendee will receive a free illustrated poster by Irish illustrator Cathal Duane . Struggling Philadelphia boxer Rocky Balboa (Sylvester Stallone) has a chance to become a somebody when heavyweight champion Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers) comes up with the Bicentennial gimmick of fighting a sure-ringer and easily winning the bout himself. But someone forgot to tell Rocky, who trains earnestly. And in the climactic fight sequence, the "Italian Stallion" gets his wish: to go the distance... against all the odds. Screening as part of the Naughton Gallery’s SCREEN/PRINT series in collaboration with QFT and UsFolk. This specially commissioned illustrated poster for Rocky was created by Irish illustrator Cathal Duane.

Wild Horse Nine

Queen's Film Theatre · South Belfast · Film
Martin McDonagh returns with another tragi-comic two-hander with a razor-sharp script and outstanding performances from a stellar cast. After the success of The Banshees of Inisherin , McDonagh has turned his attention to Chile in the 1970s, where two CIA men discuss morality and mortality during a dispatch to the vanishingly remote and metaphorically rich Easter Island. With John Malkovich as the ailing Chris, mentor to Sam Rockwell’s Lee, and idiosyncratic support from Steve Buscemi, Parker Posey and Tom Waits, the film is an accidental allegory for present-day politics with trademark bittersweet notes, sweeping landscapes and strategically-placed horses.
