From visionary British director Gurinder Chadha (Bend It Like Beckham, Blinded By The Light), Christmas Karma sees ones of history’s greatest novels - Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol transformed into a joyous, colourful, feel-good Christmas musical that celebrates modern-day London and all of its vibrant communities and cultures.

With an all-star cast and music from Gary Barlow, Nitin Sawhney and Shaznay Lewis, the film features an eclectic soundtrack influenced by gospel, bhangra, carols, rap and classic pop songs. You will not be able to sit still!

Inspired by Frank Capra’s timeless ‘It’s A Wonderful Life’, Christmas Karma is a festive British classic for our times, and for generations to come. Told from Chadha’s unique point of view and in her own distinctive style that promotes a strong message to be kind, choose love and celebrate the present.

In August 2017,  in the lead-up to national elections, Jacinda Ardern unexpectedly became New Zealand’s opposition party leader. She had just turned 37. Two frenetic months later, she was Prime Minister. Just before the final vote was in, she discovered she was pregnant. She would become only the second head of state in history to give birth while in office.

Going behind the scenes of her administration and her private life, PRIME MINISTER follows Jacinda for seven years as she is catapulted to the top of New Zealand politics, becomes a feminist political icon, resigns suddenly from office and continues to champion the fight against isolationism, fear, and the distortion of the truth.

Screenings of PRIME MINISTER will be followed by a 15 minute pre-recorded Q&A between Jacinda and film critic Rhianna Dhillon.

“One of the most arrestingly intimate political documentaries you’ll see.”

The 1970s. Runaway Jeanne (Clara Pacini) falls under the spell of Cristina (Academy Award winner Marion Cotillard), enigmatic star of The Snow Queen, a film of the Hans Christian Anderson story being shot in the studio where Jeanne has taken refuge.

A richly textured and deeply moving tale of longing and solitude, this dark and mesmerising modern fairytale makes a highly original and alternative festive choice this Christmas.

We’re also screening the loose 90s remake You’ve Got Mail on December 14th, which is half price when you book both films together.

And of course the much beloved other Jimmy Stewart Christmas classic, It’s a Wonderful Life December 22nd.
