More cinema of despair this Bleak Week
Grave of the Fireflies
Bleak Week: Cinema of Despair is presented in partnership with the American Cinematheque and Prince Charles Cinema.
When an apocalyptic vision pushes a group of rabbits to abandon their warren, Hazel, Fiver and Bigwig must tackle the brutal realities of the rural world - and mankind’s devastating impact on it - as they lead their colony to the utopian Watership Down.

Join us before the film on Saturday from 10:30am, for a drop-in, self-led activity!
Our Sunday morning Hyde & Seek screenings at 11:00 in Screen Two are Autism friendly. These relaxed screenings are intended to provide a safe environment for neurodiverse audiences and anyone who finds standard screenings challenging. They feature prompt start times, raised lighting, reduced volume and a relaxed attitude to noise/moving around. To give audiences extra space, we reduce the capacity at these screenings, so pre-booking is advised as they often sell out.

“Watership Down stands alone as a horizon never reached - a portal into what animation can be, could be: an art form. It fuels the hope for that future. A delicate, violent, savage confection - perfect and sharp, like a diamond knife.”
Guillermo del Toro (Pinocchio, The Shape of Water)
“An overwhelmingly emotional experience.”
Andrew Haigh (All of Us Strangers, 45 Years)
