Mighty Movies is a new initiative showcasing films from other countries or that have a global perspective.
Our first film will be Winners, which we are screening in collaboration with Henry Bloom Library in Douglas. This is a movie from Iran, set in a small provincial town, where the children work hard to support their families. One day nine-year-old Yahya and his friend Leyla find a precious statue. Sharing a passion for cinema, Yahya’s boss Naser Khan decides to help them find the owner.
The film is in Persian but has English subtitles and is rated PG. The screening takes place at 7pm on Thursday 20th June, downstairs in the library. No booking required.
This will be the first of a series of films – if you have a favourite you would like to nominate, please let us know.
