Sense and Sensibility (U)
An irresistible new take on the iconic Sense and Sensibility, a charming, witty, and deeply relatable story of love and sisterhood.
RIP IT UP – CUT AND PASTE! – Remembrance (15)
This rarely seen British film is set around the pubs and clubs of the then-notorious Union Street in 1980s Plymouth and follows a group of young Royal Navy sailors during their last 24 hours ashore before their ship sets sail.
RIP IT UP – Reclaim The Frame Presents: Beautiful Thing (15)
A tender story of first love, belonging and growing up, Beautiful Thing follows neighbours Jamie and Ste as their friendship deepens into romance over the course of one long, hot summer.
Human Traffic (15) Rip It Up – Cut and Paste!
Cult classic, newly restored in 4K. Looking for an escape from boring 9-5 jobs, bad relationships, and dysfunctional families, five Cardiff friends plan a night out to remember.
Bad Apples (15)
Maria is a primary school teacher doing her best to inspire a class of 11-year-olds, but she’s unable to because of one unruly student. Entertaining and provocative, Bad Apples challenges us to think about our society’s systems.
Derek vs Derek (15)
Two neighbouring Devon farmers, both called Derek, go to war over the future of their land in this documentary. One is an advocate for intensive farming; the other is giving his entire farm over to nature, rewilding it into an oasis for wildlife.
Queen At Sea (15)
Juliette Binoche, Tom Courtenay and Anna Calder-Marshall are astonishing in this emotionally challenging, sincerely powerful drama.
Babystar (12A)
A biting social media satire of family in the influencer age. Luca lives in a big house with her loving parents, and she has millions of followers on social media - except Luca has never chosen that life.
NT Live: The Misanthrope (15)
Award-winner Sandra Oh (Killing Eve) plays the title role in this razor-sharp reimagining of Molière’s classic dark comedy.
