Agnès Varda's drama focuses on the intertwined lives of two women brought together during the struggle of the women's movement in 1970s France.

Dates and Times: Wed 20 Jun at 18:15 and Sat 30 Jun at 20:40.

Set against the backdrop of the women’s liberation movement, the film charts the friendship between two women over the course of 15 years. Suzanne and Pauline lead very different lives, but what unifies them is their commitment to women’s rights. A deeply personal film for Varda, it combines elements of a musical (with lyrics written by the director herself) with Varda’s usual blend of fiction and documentary.

There will be a talk event in the Library - Agnès Varda Salon: Political, Personal and Playful - after the screening of One Sings, the Other Doesn’t on Wednesday 20 June 18:15. Free to ticket holders of One Sings, the Other Doesn’t on this date (but must be booked via the box office due to limited capacity), otherwise £6.50.
