SUMMARY:Malvern Hills Literary Loop: Tolkien\, Lewis\, Darwin & Dickens
DESCRIPTION:Legendary fantasy authors JRR Tolkien and CS Lewis were frequent visitors to the Malvern Hills around the middle of the 20th century and the distinctive landscape may have inspired features of Middle Earth and Narnia\, like the Giant’s Cave from the Hobbit and the Victorian gas lamps from The Lion\, the Witch & the Wardrobe. \nA century earlier\, authors Charles Darwin and Charles Dickens visited Malvern for the Water Cure and most of the treatment centres and guest houses still remain. \nThe Malvern Hills Literary Loop starts at the Mr. Tumnus bench in Priory Park and heads up past Knotsford House where Dickens stayed to Lewis’s former school Cherbourg House before pausing at the Lewis Memorial in Rosebank Gardens and following the gas lamps up to St. Ann’s Well cafe. \nAfter admiring the views around North Hill\, the trail descends to Alexandra Rd where Lewis’s close friend & biographer George Sayers lived\, opposite the former home of composer Edward Elgar. \nThe loop then heads up past Montreal House where Darwin stayed during his daughter’s treatment and past Lewis & Tolkien’s favourite pub The Unicorn Inn before passing the Hobbit door and down to Malvern Priory to find Anne Darwin’s grave and potentially the original Narnian gas lamp. \nDates and booking\nThe walks are available on many dates\, often with the option of two start times on the same day. For more information\, including prices\, availability and to book. visit the Malvern Hills Literary Loop: Tolkien\, Lewis\, Darwin & Dickens page on Airbnb.

SUMMARY:X Marks the Spot (Festival of Ideas)
DESCRIPTION:Unearthing the physical remains of our past is a quintessential human itch – seen in every society from the ancients through to today. But the stories behind archaeological exploration and discovery – what we seek when\, what we end up finding\, and what we then do with it – tell us as much about ourselves today as they do about the past. \nThrough sensational stories of discovery\, Professor Michael Scott explores the evolution of modern archaeology from colonial expeditions to today’s cutting-edge science\, revealing traps\, curses and buried treasure along the way. We uncover why different periods and places have caught our attention and imaginations at different points in history. We meet the characters\, some celebrated and some forgotten\, who made world-famous discoveries like the Rosetta Stone\, the Terracotta Warriors and Machu Picchu. We consider ancient human footprints\, astounding shipwrecks\, mythical princesses and surprising rituals as insights into the wonders of past civilisations. And we explore how archaeological discoveries have often become emblems of modern fascinations and dilemmas.

SUMMARY:The End (12A) PREVIEW (Borderlines Film Festival)
DESCRIPTION:DIRECTOR: Joshua Oppenheimer\nSTARRING: Tilda Swinton\, George MacKay\, Moses Ingram\, Michael Shannon\nDENMARK/GERMANY/IRELAND/ITALY/UK/SWEDEN\, 2024\,\n2 HOURS 28 MINUTES\,\nENGLISH \nJoshua Oppenheimer follows documentaries The Act of Killing and The Look of Silence with a bold move: an all-star musical about a family that has survived the end of the world. \nTwenty-five years after environmental collapse left the Earth uninhabitable\, Mother\, Father and Son and their few companions are confined to a palatial bunker. They struggle to maintain hope and a sense of normalcy through the rituals of daily life – until the arrival of a stranger. Suddenly the frail bonds of optimism that have held this wealthy clan together begin to fray. As tensions rise\, long repressed feelings of remorse and resentment threaten to destroy the balance. \nBut difficult truths point to a way forward\, one based on acceptance\, love\, and a capacity for change. \nPreview courtesy of MUBI \nShow Times\n*Film starts at advertised time*\nFriday 7th March at 4pm – CINEMA\nSunday 9th March at 12.45pm – CINEMA\nTuesday 11th March at 11:45pm – FORUM

SUMMARY:Harvest (18) PREVIEW (Borderlines Film Festival)
DESCRIPTION:DIRECTOR: Athena Rachel Tsangari\nSTARRING: Caleb Landry Jones\, Harry Melling\, Rosy McEwen\, Arinzé Kene\nUK/GERMANY/GREECE\, 2023\,\n2 HOURS 11 MINUTES\,\nENGLISH \nShot in Argyllshire\, Jim Crace’s novel about a closed rural community in an unspecified past undergoes imaginative realisation by Greek film maker Athena Rachel Tsangari. \nTsangari\, who has previously worked alongside Yorgos Lanthimos\, follows her incisive portrait of male anxiety\, Chevalier (2015)\, with a bold\,vivid and good-looking take on the period film.

SUMMARY:On Voice and the Feeling of Truth (Malvern Festival of Ideas)
DESCRIPTION:Join novelist\, poet and playwright Owen Sheers as he concludes our weekend with readings and conversation around his attempts to move beyond a partial truth through engaging with ideas of hybridity\, lyricism and voice. \nIn this final session of the 2025 event\, Professor Owen Sheers will read from three of his recent works\, the verse-drama Pink Mist and the BBC film-poems The Green Hollow and To Provide All People. His reading will be interspersed with conversation about the creative processes involved in creating these works\, all three of which engage with ideas of hybridity\, lyricism and voice to try and move beyond a partial ‘knowing’ of the truth towards a fuller ‘feeling’ of it. Blending documentary and poetic devices\, Owen uses the voices of characters informed by multiple interviews to create communal works that address such subjects as the aftermath of conflict\, the Aberfan disaster\, and the NHS. The nature of such subjects is that the truth of individual experience at their core is often anonymised in more general public narratives. By shaping his writing around composite characters\, many voices and alternating perspectives\, Owen is able to write in counterflow to this anonymisation\, engaging rhythm\, rhyme and imagery to create a strangely intimate lyrical distance through which the gap between a reader and the experiences they are reading is\, paradoxically\, narrowed to great emotional effect. \nSuitable for: 12 years and up

SUMMARY:La Cocina (15) PREVIEW (Borderlines Film Festival)
DESCRIPTION:DIRECTOR: Alonso Ruizpalacios\nSTARRING: Raúl Briones\, Rooney Mara\, Anna Diaz\, Motell Foster\nUS/MEXICO\, 2024\,\n2 HOURS 19 MINUTES\,\nENGLISH/SPANISH + ENGLISH SUBTITLES \nTensions simmer in a busy Times Square restaurant where back-of-house staff chase the American dream. \nHere\, in fine-grained black and white\, is the pressure cooker of the modern professional kitchen\, shifting away from haute cuisine to the phenomenally tough lives of the immigrant workers who keep the line running.

SUMMARY:Red Path (18) PREVIEW (Borderlines Film Festival)
DESCRIPTION:DIRECTOR: Lotfi Achour\nSTARRING: Ali Helali\, Yassine Samouni\, Wided Dabebi\, Jemii Lamari\,\nTUNISIA/FRANCE/BELGIUM/POLAND/SAUDI ARABIA/QATAR\, 2024\,\n1 HOUR 37 MINUTES\,\nARABIC + ENGLISH SUBTITLES \nSet in the isolation of the vast Tunisian mountains\, this dreamlike journey probes the wounded psyche of a young shepherd. \nWhen a group of jihadists set upon two young shepherds\, killing one of them\, Achraf\, 13\, is forced to bring the head of his cousin Nizar to the family as a macabre message. Based on a real murder during the 2015 Tunisian unrest\, the story foregrounds Achraf’s point of view\, from his playful interaction with his cousin\, through the gut-churning terror of the attack\, to his mounting inner anxiety as he faces his family’s grief and dilemma. \nWith stunning cinematography\, the film delves deep into the psychological impact of violence on children\, portraying the stark reality of rural Tunisia while contrasting it with more introspective\, ethereal moments. \nPreview courtesy of Sovereign Film Distribution \nShow Times\n*Film starts at advertised time*\nSunday 9th March at 4.15pm\nThursday 13th March at 7.30pm\nVenue: Forum Theatre

SUMMARY:Memoir of a Snail (15) (Borderlines Film Festival)
DESCRIPTION:DIRECTOR: Adam Elliot\nWITH THE VOICES OF: Sarah Snook\, Kodi Smit-McPhee\, Jacki Weaver\nAUSTRALIA\, 2024\,\n1 HOURS 34 MINUTES\,\nENGLISH \nOscar-winning director Adam Elliot’s distinctive stop-motion animation style is perfect for conveying the sweet pathos of the outsider. \nIn 1970s Australia\, closeknit twins Grace and Gilbert are separated to opposite end of the continent while still children. Grace moves in with an affluent ‘swinger’ couple\, while Gilbert\, whose ambition is to be a fire eater\, is fostered by members of a cult. Grace’s life changes when she meets a colourful\, eccentric old lady called Pinky who has ‘done it all’ – from making love to John Denver to playing ping pong with Fidel Castro. \nWitty\, inventive but intensely full of feeling – as well as snail-obsessed – this is an animation gem. \n“He makes mainstream animation look a bit neurotypical.” Peter Bradshaw\, The Guardian \nBest Film Award\, BFI London Film Festival 2024 \nShow Times\n*Film starts at advertised time*\nFriday 7th March at 4.15pm – FORUM\nSunday 9th March at 4.30pm – STUDIO ONE

SUMMARY:Ernest Cole: Lost & Found (15) PREVIEW (Borderlines Film Festival)
DESCRIPTION:DIRECTOR: Raoul Peck\nNARRATOR: LaKeith Stanfield\nUS/FRANCE\, 2024\,\n1 HOUR 46 MINUTES\,\nENGLISH \nPhotographer Ernest Cole’s groundbreaking work that exposed the inhumanity and injustice of South African apartheid to the world is brought to life by documentary maker Raoul Peck. \nPublished in 1967 when Cole was only in his 20s\, his book House of Bondage is filled with images of the acutely painful photographs Cole risked his own life to take: psychological portraits of existence within a brutal caste system\, its violence and indignity. Exiled to Europe and America\, he spent the rest of his life disillusioned and enraged by the silence of the West in the face of the apartheid regime. Of a piece with Peck’s body of work (including I Am Not Your Negro)\, this also functions as detective thriller that reassesses Cole’s life and his contribution to our understanding of race. \nPreview courtesy of Dogwoof \nShow Times\n*Film starts at advertised time*\nSunday 9th March at 7pm – STUDIO ONE\nTuesday 11th March at 3pm – FORUM \n

SUMMARY:Nickel Boys (15) (Borderlines Film Festival)
DESCRIPTION:BORDERLINES FILM FESTIVAL \nDIRECTOR: RaMell Ross\nSTARRING: Ethan Herisse\, Brandon Wilson\, Aunjanue Ellis-Taylor\nUS\, 2024\, 2 HOURS 20 MINUTES\, ENGLISH\nAD AUDIO DESCRIPTION AVAILABLE \nA superlative adaptation of Colson Whitehead’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel tells the story of Elwood\, a black teen sent to the hellish Nickel Academy. \nElwood befriends fellow student Turner and together they find a way to squirrel hope against the odds. \nDocumentary maker RaMell Ross launches into feature filmmaking with this audacious and profoundly moving tale of a mid-century reform school\, based on a notorious real-life institution. He uses an entirely visual means to explore not only what happened\, but also how it felt\, finding a new language to speak about the long shadow of trauma\, one that leaves cliché behind. \nPushing the painful to the margins\, just as its characters do\, this is impressive filmmaking. \n“How often do you watch something so original\, it changes the way you think about image construction itself?” Sophie Monks Kaufman\, Time Out \nThe screening on Sunday is sponsored by MALVERN BOOK COOPERATIVE \nShow Times\n*Film starts at advertised time*\nSaturday 8th March at 7.15pm\nSunday 9th March at 7.15pm\nVenue: Cinema

SUMMARY:Milton Jones: Ha!Milton
DESCRIPTION:This is not a musical. Milton Jones is tone deaf and has no sense of rhythm\, but at least he doesn’t make a song and dance about it. \nHe has more important things to discuss\, including giraffes…and there’s a bit about tomatoes. \nYou may know him from Mock the Week\, Live at the Apollo or Radio 4. Or that time he stood for the Scottish National Party\, fought a hard campaign\, but in the end had to respect the wishes of the people of Cardiff. \nA whole new show of daftness. You know it makes sense.
