Join Ely Community Cinema this Sunday 9th August, 7:30pm at The Maltings for a special screening celebrating one of Britain's most beloved artists.

This intimate documentary goes behind the scenes of two of Hockney's blockbuster Royal Academy exhibitions. A Bigger Picture (2012) and 82 Portraits and One Still Life (2016), with rare, in-depth interviews and privileged access to his creative process. Following Hockney's death this June, it's a fitting and moving tribute to a true 21st-century master.

A perfect Sunday evening out for art lovers and film fans alike.

This Wednesday at 7:30pm we're screening a Blue Heron, a critically acclaimed, semi-autobiographical feature debut by director Sophy Romvari. The film as a moving, unshowy, and masterfully assembled memory piece exploring childhood trauma, family dysfunction, and the circular nature of grief through the eyes of a young girl.

Please note, for this screening The Maltings will be set out in a "relaxed summer screening" layout with large circular tables and chairs rather than the usual raked seating. Booking online and at the door per usual.
See our website for more details and to book your tickets. www.elycinema.org.uk
