Belfast (12A)

Kenneth Branagh’s BAFTA winning Belfast is a big-hearted ode to a city, its community and to family. Set during the tumult of late-1960s Northern Ireland, the film follows young Buddy (Jude Hill) as he navigates a landscape of working-class struggle, sweeping cultural changes, and sectarian violence. Shot in lustrous black and white, the film sees Buddy’s child’s-eye perspective on the increasing social unrest give way to imaginings inspired by his love of movies.
