April

We were delighted to previously screen this film but we have no current plans to screen it again. If you'd like to watch it in the cinema, consider a private hire to watch it with friends. That does rely on the film being available for private purchase.

Showings

Nina, an OB-GYN, faces accusations after newborn’s death. Her life undergoes scrutiny during investigation. She persists in her medical duties, determined to provide care others hesitate to offer, despite risks.

There is so much rugged poetry contained in this film, and yet the palpable, gnawing horror is what sees it through.

That month has never seemed crueller. The high arthouse influences are still detectable, but Kulumbegashvili has mastered and absorbed them and has an evolving film-language of her own.
