>>>SEPTEMBER SCREENING: The Roses on 3rd September 2025<<<
meet & knit in the 1st floor Lounge from 7.30pm, film starts around 8pm
Life seems easy for picture-perfect couple Ivy (Olivia Colman) and Theo (Benedict Cumberbatch): successful careers, a loving marriage, great kids. But beneath the façade of their supposed ideal life, a storm is brewing – as Theo’s career nosedives while Ivy’s own ambitions take off, a tinderbox of fierce competition and hidden resentment ignites. The Roses is a reimagining of the 1989 classic film The War of the Roses, based on the novel by Warren Adler.
>>>9 OCTOBER SCREENING: The Nettle Dress<<<
meet & knit in the 1st Floor Lounge from 7.30pm, film starts around 8pm
Allan Brown makes a dress by hand just from the fibre of foraged stinging nettles over 7 years. A modern day fairytale and hymn to the healing power of nature and slow craft. The film is a handspun labour of love too and follows him every step of the way.
>>>13 NOVEMBER SCREENING: Woman Grows Jeans<<<
meet & knit in the 1st Floor Lounge from 7.30pm, film starts around 8pm
In a country buying 70 million pairs a year, Woman Grows Jeans journeys into our resilient ancestry to reclaim the care and agency that’s key to regeneration. What unfolds is a tender, radical act of reconnection: to land, lineage, and the almost lost skills of the ‘more-than-human’ world.
After 600 hours, the UK’s only pair of homegrown jeans were handmade – not as a relic, but as a signpost toward the future our hearts know is possible
>>>10 DECEMBER SCREENING: Mrs Harris Goes To Paris<<<
meet & knit in the 1st Floor Lounge from 7pm for the chance to chat to our special guest for the evening, Liz Baltesz – drawing inspiration from Shetland traditions and designers such as Kaffe Fassett, Stephen West, Kieran Foley and Kate Davies, she explores techniques from stranded and intarsia to brioche and mosaic.
