Part of Hyde & Seek

Part of Heritage Is Open

Sophisticated storytelling and lavish camera work combine to create a magical mystery told through the eyes of an orphaned boy. The young Hugo lives within the walls of a bustling train station in 1930’s Paris. His lonely life is given a purpose by constructing a mysterious unfinished robot left to him by his father. The final piece of the metallic jigsaw comes in the unlikely form of a friendly young girl, Isabelle - she wears a key around her neck that is a perfect fit for the robots lock. As the catch clicks free, a magical challenge awaits the pair that embraces their joint-love of cinema.

Thanks to our friends at Leeds Civic Trust, prior to our general screenings on both Saturday and Sunday, we will be launching a fun, interactive heritage themed trail for the whole family to enjoy, highlighting our many well-loved features and exploring the history of your favourite local cinema!

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.
