SUMMARY:Brentwood International Cultural Festival
DESCRIPTION:Brentwood Theatre is proud to be part of the Brentwood International Cultural Festival and as part of the festival we have a fantastic selection of films with offers across all four films. \nAmong the highlights are \n20th September 10am\nThe Colours Within \nAbeautifully crafted Japanese anime that explores friendship\, creativity\, and the courage to embrace your true self. Following the story of a reserved high school student who discovers the transformative power of art through unexpected connections\, the film blends heartfelt storytelling with breathtaking animation.\nWith its vibrant visuals and emotionally resonant themes\, The Colours Within invites audiences of all ages to experience the magic of self-expression and the bonds that shape who we are. A must-see for anime fans and newcomers alike\, this film captures the spirit of discovery and the universal language of colour.\nFollowing the film there is an opportunity for young people to join an art workshop where they can work with artists to express themselves.\nIn the cinema there will be a discussion about wider Japanese culture led by Keiko Okawa\, a resident of Brentwood. \n20th September – 7pm\nPolice\, Adjective\n\nIn this blackly humorous police drama\, a cop suffers from a crisis of conscience when he is assigned to gather evidence against a college student dabbling with soft drugs. Arguing for leniency to be shown towards what he regards as youthful irresponsibility\, he finds his superiors have a very different interpretation of morality and the law.\nA blackly humorous and intelligent satire of bureaucracy\, ‘Police\, Adjective’ (2009) is the acclaimed film from award winning director\, Corneliu Porumboiu.\nStars Dragos Bucur\, Vlad Ivanov\, Ion Stoica. \n21st September – 2pm\nThe Last Dance\nThe award winning “The Last Dance” (Hong Kong: 2024) is a delicate drama following a wedding planner who faces financial struggles during COVID and decides to switch careers to enter the funeral business.  The film raises issues of family loyalty\, love\, religion and death in Hong Kong to give us real insight.\nThe film will be followed by a discussion of Hong Kong culture led by Michael Chang to give us all a greater understanding of those that have come to live here in Brentwood. \n21st September – 7pm\nMami Wata\nThe highly acclaimed Mami Wata is a Nigerian film  rooted in West African folklore and the sources of social power. In Iyi village\, the people worship Mami Wata\, a powerful mermaid deity\, through their spiritual leader Mama Efe\, who serves as the intermediary between the divine and the people. Her daughter Zinwe and her protégé Prisca assist her in maintaining this matriarchal order. But when children begin to die mysteriously and disappear\, faith in Mama Efe’s leadership begins to falter.\nAt the Sundance Film Festival it won Special Jury Prize for Cinematography.\nThe film will be followed by a discussion with Mary Iwuagwu\, a resident of Brentwood.\nCert 12a
