Borderlines Film Festival

 The Borderlines Film Festival runs from Friday 4th March to Sunday 20th March, all over Herefordshire.  Most of the films will be shown at The Courtyard, Hereford, and Malvern Theatres, but there are twenty venues, from Brilley Village Hall to Presteigne Assembly Rooms - and Booths' Bookshop Cinema.

They will be showing three films:

Hive, on Friday 11th March, is about Kosovan women starting a business together.

Benediction, on Saturday 12th March, is about the life of Siegfried Sassoon, the First World War poet, including his love affair with Ivor Novello the song writer and actor in the Roaring Twenties.

and Compartment No. 6, on Sunday 13th March, is set during a winter train journey across Russia in the early 1990s.

A note in the programme adds that the organisers don't know what the Covid restrictions will be during the Festival, so it's best to check with the venue.  As the Bookshop Cinema is in Wales, Welsh rules apply, which are that face masks must be worn at all times, and members of the audience must have a valid Covid Pass or evidence of a recent negative test in order to enter the cinema.
