Films at Chapter 5 – 11 December

We’re celebrating women on screen through stories of love, power, resilience and transformation.

Our BFI Too Much: Melodrama on Film season continues with rediscovered classics that centre women’s experiences. Cuban-Mexican icon Ninón Sevilla dazzles in Invisible Women: Victims of Sin, risking everything to save an abandoned baby, while All That Heaven Allows, Stella Dallas and Now, Voyager explore love, family and personal transformation.

Hedda delivers a witty adaptation of Ibsen’s classic as a married woman’s future hangs in the balance, and Prime Minister offers an intimate portrait of Jacinda Ardern navigating crises while redefining leadership on the global stage.

Don’t miss Jafar Panahi’s Palme d’Or-winning thriller, It Was Just an Accident, a gripping and morally engaging tale for our times.
