See one of the most critically-acclaimed films of 2013 on the big screen with a live orchestra. This emotional, powerful film follows Hushpuppy, a six year-old-girl existing on the brink of orphanhood

30 - 31 July.

Described by The New York Times as 'a blast of sheer, improbable joy, a boisterous, thrilling action movie and a passionate and unruly explosion of Americana, which winks at skepticism, laughs at sober analysis and stares down criticism'.

Composer Dan Romer and director/co-composer Benh Zeitlin have perfectly captured the film’s southern bayou heartbeat with a lovely mix of mystical and traditional Louisiana music that echo the strange world of this gorgeous film, which you can see on a huge screen with the two composers and the Serious Orchestra playing the acclaimed score live.
