AFTER LOVE
Aleem Khan / UK 2021 / 89 min / Cert 12A
Set in the port of Dover, Mary Hussain (Joanna Scanlan), finds herself a widow following the unexpected death of her husband Ahmed (Nassar Memarzia). A day after the burial she discovers a secret, whilst tidying his things in their Dover home and then sets off to uncover the truth just 21 mies across the Channel in Calais. This is a remarkable debut from director DKhan, who handles the subject matter with a delicacy and tenderness that is testament to the quality of its writing and performances. It is brilliantly led by Scanlan, ably supported by Nathalie Richard and newcomer Talid Ariss.
The programme starts at 7.30pm and the feature will be at 7.45pm
