The Borderlines Film Festival began on 6th March, and there are several films being shown in Hay.
I'm afraid I missed the first weekend of films - Booth's Bookshop Cinema was showing No Other Choice, a South Korean film about a man who goes for a job and decides to get rid of his rivals, Resurrection, a Chinese sort of time travel film spanning a century of Chinese history, and Nouvelle Vague, a French film re-imagining the making of Jean-Luc Godard's film A bout de souffle - the original film is also being shown in Ludlow and Hereford.
Coming up on Friday 13th is The Last Viking, a Danish crime comedy starring Mads Mikkelsen, and on Saturday 14th is The Stranger, a French adaptation of the Albert Camus novel.
All sorts of other films are showing across Herefordshire - it's a pity I can't get to Malvern or Hereford (well, I can get there - it's getting home that's the problem!) to see The Testament of Ann Lee, founder of the Shakers, a religious sect that started in Manchester. There's also H is for Hawk, and Zootropolis 2, which shows something of the wide variety of films on offer.
There are also films about Palestine. All That's Left of You follows three generations of a Palestinian family from 1948 to the near present, one is set in 1936 when the Palestinians rose up against British rule, and The Voice of Hind Rajab, is about the little girl who was killed by Israeli forces in 2024, along with everyone else in the car with her, and the ambulance crew sent to rescue her.
