Spring season of films at The Model
SLIGO Film Society has begun their new Spring season of 14 films at The Model Cinema.
The season started last Thursday 11 th January running until 19 th April, with films from around the world including Bulgaria, France, Italy, Norway, Russia, Senegal, UK and US and a strong Irish flavour.
Membership will be open to avail of a concessionary ticket for all 14 films but it is also possible to pay per screening, tickets cost just €8 or €6 (unwaged, retired, students).
A number of films use the bond of family to examine tales of human nature and morality.
In particular, three female-focused stories tell of resilience – ‘Félicité’, ‘ The Florida Project’, ‘ The Devine Order’. The season ends with the recent Golden Globe win- ning ‘ Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri, directed by London-Irish theatre stalwart Martin McDonagh, with a stirring performance from Frances McDormund.
It will surely be in the hunt for Oscars later in the spring.
All screenings commence at each Thursday at 8pm. The Model Café will be open ahead of each screening serving drinks and refreshments.
