Britain's What's On Event Guide
Stafford Film Theatre: Cottontail
COTTONTAIL
Patrick Dickinson / UK, Japan 2023 / 94 min / Cert 12A / Some subtitles
In Tokyo a widower receives a posthumous letter conveying a special request. His wife wants her cremated remains to be scattered in the Lake District, the place she loved growing up in the stories of Beatrix Potter. On arriving in the UK Kenzaburo (Lilly Franky) falls out with his son. After various misadventures in his attempts to get to the Lake District he is helped by John (Ciaran Hinds) who has experienced a bereavement of his own. With a mesmerising central performance from Franky, the film relies on facial expressions rather than dialogue to tell its story. This award-winning directorial debut is beautifully shot on wide screen.
