Our Next Presentation: Our Little Sister
THE CRAMPHORN THEATRE, CHELMSFORD – Monday 6TH March @ 8PM
Hirokazu Koreeda’s previous films, I Wish and Like Father, Like Son, have been well received by CFC members in the past. In his latest work (based on the “Umi-machi Diary” graphic novels), three grown-up, but maybe not-so-grown-up, sisters live together in a house once owned by their grandmother and acquired under painful circumstances. When they attend their father’s funeral they are delighted by his teen-age daughter Suzo, their step-sister, and she is invited to live with them. The narrative accumulates in power as the lives of the sisters unfolds. (Read more…)

Film for Tuesday 21st March
The distributors of our intended screening, “Black Mountain Poets”, ceased trading earlier this year, and we are unable to obtain a license for the screening of this film. We are currently deciding on a replacement, and an announcement will be made here as soon as possible.
The 21st is also the scheduled date of our second informal discussion evening, to be held in the Foyer of the Cramphorn Theatre, following the screening of the film. This event may have to be rescheduled, however, depending on the length of the replacement film
