Films at HEART: ON BECOMING A GUINEA FOWL
Doors 7pm Film 7.15pm
Dir Rungano Nyoni/1 hr 39 mins/Certificate 12A/Subtitles/2024
Dark Comedy/Drama
On an empty road in the middle of the night, Shula played by Susan Chardy, stumbles across the body of her Uncle Fred. As funeral proceedings begin around them, she and her cousins bring to light the buried secrets of their middle-class Zambian family.
Review: “Rungano Nyoni is one of the most exciting voices in cinema today and On Becoming a Guinea Fowl is abject proof: a disquieting, blistering examination of a family where social status trumps blood ties.” Empire
Tickets £6.50/£5.50 concessions (students + unwaged) available from HEART reception and online
