September films have arrived!

&Sons

Bill Nighy is Andrew Dyer, a reclusive literary legend convinced he’s about to die, who summons his estranged sons home to make peace before he goes. What follows isn’t just about forgiveness. There’s a family secret waiting, and an unexpected twist that turns everything on its head. Adapted by Sarah Polley from David Gilbert’s novel, with Imelda Staunton, George MacKay, Johnny Flynn, Dominic West and Noah Jupe alongside him.

Girl Climber

Emily Harrington has summited Everest and dominated the competition circuit, but the climb that could define her career is a 24-hour ascent of El Capitan. Caught between ambition and everything else life is asking of her, a near-fatal fall forces her to reckon with what she’s actually willing to risk. Part survival story, part intimate portrait, and not remotely about being the best girl climber. Just the best.

Holy Days

1970s New Zealand. Young Brian has lost his mother and is determined to stop his dad remarrying, convinced that prayer and penance might bring her back. He finds refuge at a run-down convent with three delightfully eccentric nuns, then overhears plans to shut it down. What follows is a wild, funny road trip to the Southern Alps, complete with crooked officials, a sister lost to fishmongers, and a bet shop win. A joyful comedy about letting go and finding home in unexpected places.

FATHER’S DAY PREVIEW
Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom

Halloween is coming to Mossy Bottom Farm, until the Farmer trashes the Flock’s beloved pumpkin patch. Shaun goes full mad scientist to fix it, and things spiral fast. Now the Farmer’s missing and something is roaming the woods of Mossingham. A monstrously fun family adventure, previewing at Pivot before it hits cinemas.

Girl Climber is screening at Pivot Cinema, and we’ve teamed up with Industry Boulders to get the Geelong climbing crew in the room for it. 🧗

Emily Harrington had already summited Everest by the time she decided the climb actually worth doing was El Cap in under 24 hours, and the fall that nearly killed her didn’t change her mind about it. The film is about what that kind of obsession costs, and about a woman who’s spent her whole career being told she’s good for a girl while quietly becoming one of the best.

What if one of the biggest forces driving the climate crisis is also one of the least talked about? 🌏

Join us for a special screening and Q&A of Earth’s Greatest Enemy, presented by the Independent and Peaceful Australia Network (IPAN) and IPAN Geelong & Vic Southwest.

Investigative journalist Abby Martin and Iraq War veteran Mike Prysner turn their attention to the environmental footprint of the US military: following a years-long investigation into carbon emissions, contaminated water, toxic waste, military expansion and the communities living with the consequences.

Earth’s Greatest Enemy asks a confronting question: can we seriously address the climate crisis without talking about the environmental cost of war?

Another Q&A snuck into August, and it's a good one. 🐥

Rod Quantock: Comedy Warrior traces the life of a man whose fingerprints are on just about every phase of Australian comedy. The Archi R***e in the sixties. The Comedy Cafe in the seventies. Sketch television in the eighties.

He founded the Melbourne International Comedy Festival in 1987, and he's spent the last twenty years as one of the country's most stubborn and hilarious climate activists.

Filmmaker Fiona Cochrane joins us after the screening. If you were here for Whoopee Blues, you'll know that one sold out fast!

🗓️ Wednesday 26 August, 6pm.

Told with animation, archival footage, and the kind of ridiculous stories only Rod could generate.
