Harder than the Rock – the fascinating story of Cimarons, the first UK band to embrace the thrilling new sound coming out of Jamaica.

Reggae exploded in the 1970s, with Cimarons at its heart. Thousands of miles from Jamaica, they brought excitement, experimentation and sheer anticipation booming from speaker boxes, putting the new generation of Black British youth in touch with their roots – in contact with wo they really were. Industry legends, Cimarons worked with reggae-royalty Bob Marley, Toots & the Maytals, Jimmy Cliff, Lee ‘Scratch’ Perry and even Paul McCartney, but have been hugely under-recognised when it comes to their own music, impact and legacy. Having lost drummer Maurice Ellis to cancer, the band persists, despite decades of exploitation.

Harder than the Rock tells the story of their amazing history and follows the bands final chapter as they dream of performing in front of live audiences again, one last time.

Following the film there will be a pre-recorded Q+A with members of the Cimarons and director Mark Warmington in discussion with Don Letts.

Based on the much-loved, best-selling children’s novel by Michael Morpurgo and adapted for screen by Frank Cottrell-Boyce, KENSUKE’S KINGDOM tells of the epic adventure of Michael, a young boy, shipwrecked on a remote island, who must adapt to life alone. Over time, he feels another presence, learning that this world is home to both unimaginable danger and beauty.

Set in France during the Napoleonic Wars, this lush period drama produced by Joe Wright (Atonement, Pride and Prejudice)  tells the true story of Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin, the “Grande Dame of Champagne.”

At just 27 after her spouse’s untimely death, Barbe-Nicole, now named Veuve (the French word for widow) is determined to protect her family’s legacy. She sets out to boldly challenge the men - as well as the state - set on stripping her of her vineyards. Defying her critics by ultimately revolutionising the champagne industry, Madame Clicquot established herself as one of the world’s first great businesswomen.

“Portrayed with remarkable depth and nuance, emerges not merely as a grieving widow, but as a woman of relentless resolve and extraordinary vision.”
