Pan’s Labyrinth + The Cat Piano & Spider

Guillermo del Toro writes and directs this fairy tale to the back drop of the Spanish Civil War. Ofelia uncovers a strange underworld and the chance to escape the pain and uncertainties of her everyday life, but like any labyrinth you enter, will she be able to escape it and the ‘Pale Man’.

We are also very fortunate to be showing 2 award winning shorts both from Australia but that is where the similarity ends.

Spider – It is a simple thing to say sorry but when you just have to pull one more prank is that a prank too far??  More twists and shocks than you should be able to fit into 9 minutes!!  Thanks to our friends at Blue Tongue Films.

The Cat Piano – A beautifully animated short narrated by Nick Cave.  When the Jazz cats start going missing, someone has to find out what is going on and who is killing the sounds of the streets.  It can only lead to one place….  Thanks to our friends at The People’s Republic of Animation .

As usual beer/wine & tea/cakes will be available and also some hot savoury snacks.

See you in the dark (Bring your duvet to hide under if you really need to!!)
