Rebuilding

Rebuilding (15)

Thursday 7 May 20262:30pm (HoH Subtitled Screening)5:00pm7:30pm

Prolific shapeshifter Josh O’Connor (La Chimera, Challengers, The Mastermind, Wake Up Dead Man) plays a reserved father searching for a way back after catastrophe in Max Walker-Silverman’s (A Love Song) soulful story of the American West.


Rebuilding follows Dusty (O’Connor), a stoic cowboy whose ranch was destroyed in a devastating wildfire. Now based in a trailer community on a government-run campsite, Dusty finds solace with his new neighbours, quietly reassembles his life, and strengthens his bonds with his ex-wife Ruby (The White Lotus’s Meghann Fahy) and their young daughter Callie-Rose (Lily LaTorre). Shot against the majestic landscapes of southern Colorado, Rebuilding is a sensitive portrait of resilience, the increasing precarity of the natural world and the struggle to regain hope and trust after traumatic loss.

The life and legacy of one of the most influential artists the world has ever known is brought thrillingly to the screen.


The director of Training Day, Olympus Has Fallen and the The Equalizer films adopts a very different tack with his biographical portrait of the King of Pop. Written by John Logan (Gladiator, The Last Samurai, Hugo), the film delves into the early years of Michael Jackson, portraying his home life and success with the Jackson 5, through to his ascension as arguably the greatest star of the pop firmament. The singer is played by his real-life nephew, with an all-star cast filling out the remaining ensemble of family members, friends and witnesses.

John & Yoko Power to the People

John & Yoko Power to the People (12A)

Sunday 10 May 20266:00pm

The 2026 multiscreen concert film of two massive live shows by John Lennon and Yoko Ono at Madison Square Garden, New York.


The film is newly restored, re-edited and remixed by the Lennons' seven-time GRAMMY®-Award winning team. John & Yoko/Plastic Ono Band with Elephant's Memory and Special Guests performed these now-legendary sold-out One To One concerts to a combined audience of 40,000 people, raising over $1.5M (equivalent to $11.5M in 2026) for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities. They were the only full-length concerts John Lennon (with Yoko Ono) performed after leaving The Beatles.


Hits performed include John Lennon's 'New York City', 'Instant Karma! (We All Shine On)', 'Imagine' and 'Mother', plus Yoko Ono's 'Don't Worry Kyoko' and 'Open Your Box', as well as rousing renditions of 'Come Together' and 'Hound Dog' and an incredible stage-filled encore of 'Give Peace a Chance’, featuring special guests Stevie Wonder, Sha Na Na, Melanie Safka-Schekeryk and many others


Originally filmed by multi-camera director Steve Gebhardt in 1972, this 2026 version of the concert film is directed by Simon Hilton, edited by Ben Wainwright-Pearce and produced by Peter Worsley and Sean Ono Lennon.

D is for Distance

D is for Distance (12A)

Monday 11 May 20267:30pm

A heartbreaking, but ultimately hopeful, account of the epilepsy of Louis Petit as documented by his parents, filmmakers Christopher Petit and Emma Matthews.


This deeply personal essay film about Louis Petit, whose severe epilepsy erased nearly all memories of his childhood, employs intimate family footage as it traces the emotional and practical consequences of living with memory loss, as well as the fragile process of reconstructing a sense of self. Moving between the personal and the political, it navigates the labyrinth of medical bureaucracy while reflecting on cinema’s power to preserve, distort and reimagine memory. As it unfolds, D is for Distance expands into a broader meditation on technology, capitalism and the systems that shape our bodies and minds. A quietly powerful portrait of resilience, Petit and Matthews’ film reveals how identity survives and adapts when memory disappears.

Top Gun

Saturday 16 May 20264:45pm

A heart-pounding combination of action, music and incredible aerial photography helped make Top Gun the blockbuster hit of 1986.


Top Gun takes a look at the danger and excitement that awaits every pilot at the Navy's prestigious fighter weapons school. Tom Cruise is superb as Lt. Pete "Maverick" Mitchell, a daring young flyer who's out to become the best. And Kelly McGillis sizzles as the civilian instructor who teaches Maverick a few things you can't learn in a classroom.

After more than 30 years of service as one of the Navy's top aviators, Pete "Maverick" Mitchell is where he belongs, pushing the envelope as a courageous test pilot and dodging the advancement in rank that would ground him.

The North

The North (15)

Sunday 17 May 20266:00pm
Thursday 21 May 20267:30pm

Schrijver’s acclaimed drama follows former best friends and roommates Chris and Lluis, who meet up after a decade to hike Scotland’s West Highland Way and Cape Wrath Trail. Having taken the same 350-mile walk in their youth, the pair hope to rekindle their once-strong friendship by spending 30 days together in the majestic, raw beauty of the Scottish Highlands. But while Chris remains preoccupied with work and life back at home, Lluis is determined to finish the trail to prove he can still do it. Amidst the sweeping landscapes, harsh weather and chance encounters with other hikers, the solitude and silence of the trek force the pair to confront truths about themselves and their friendship – and find out what it truly means to stand still and listen.


Shot entirely on the route of the walk, and in chronological order, The North is a beautiful ode to friendship and the healing power of nature. It’s not only a poignant and powerful drama, but also perhaps the definitive hiking film, allowing us to take in the stunning majesty of the Highlands shoulder-to-shoulder with Lluis and Chris as they reconnect with each other and with nature.

Lori (Coel) divides her time between freelance art restoration and work in a food truck. Her lacklustre fortunes change when she’s approached by the estranged heirs (Gunning, Corden) of brilliant painter Julian Sklar (McKellen) with an exciting proposition: Lori will steal a series of long-abandoned paintings (‘The Christophers’) from Sklar’s London home, complete them and reap a third of the profits once the paintings are sold after Sklar’s imminent death. What could possibly go wrong?


Brilliantly scripted by Ed Solomon, blisteringly performed by an acerbic McKellen and a cagey Coel, The Christophers is a witty, exhilarating and complex new offering from Soderbergh that serves up thorny truths about youth and old age, artistic integrity and legacy.

Rose of Nevada

Rose of Nevada (15)

Sunday 24 May 20266:00pm
Shot on 16mm with all sound built in post-production, Mark Jenkin’s Rose of Nevada is an uncanny meditation on time, memory, and disappearance from one of Britain’s most distinctive auteurs.

With Rose of Nevada, Mark Jenkin (Bait, Enys Men) returns to the sea and to the uncanny. Set in a remote Cornish fishing village, the film opens with the unexplained reappearance of the vessel Rose of Nevada thought lost three decades prior. What follows is less a conventional mystery than a haunting, trance-like excavation of time, memory, and collective disquiet, rendered in Jenkin’s unmistakable visual and aural languages. 

Shot on 16mm using a wind-up Bolex and with all sound constructed in post-production, Rose of Nevada hums with the ghostly purr of analogue media. The sea, constant and unknowable, becomes both setting and force — ancient, indifferent, and ever-shifting. As the village responds to the boat’s return, buried tensions rise to the surface and the community itself begins to feel adrift. 

George MacKay (1917) and Callum Turner (Masters of the Air) deliver quietly affecting performances as Nick and Liam, disparate men who sign on to crew the resurrected boat. Both evoke a sense of unease as the crew sails into uncertain waters, each man confronting the temporal displacement in his own way. Their performances enhance an atmosphere immersed in flickering light and dissonant soundscapes that seem to descend from another dimension. 

Jenkin doesn’t offer easy answers. Instead, he immerses us in a world where the past refuses to stay buried and where the sea gives back only what it’s ready to. Rose of Nevada is less a ghost story than a cinematic séance — a film about displacement, recursion, and the natural world’s refusal to forget.
Our Land

Our Land (12A)

Monday 25 May 20267:30pm

This thoughtful documentary examines issues around public access to land in England.


92% of the English countryside is without legal public access. Through organised “mass trespass” events, Right to Roam seeks to extend this, but often clashes with landowners. This documentary gives voice to both sides: prominent land authors, Nick Hayes and Guy Shrubsole, as well as landowners defending their custodianship. It examines complex issues of access, conservation, and longstanding property rights that have shaped the English landscape for over a thousand years.


Ultimately, it asks the provocative question: who truly has the right to roam?

Filmed live on stage at the National Theatre, Caitríona McLaughlin directs this darkly funny tale full to the brim with secrets.


Turner & Constable

Turner & Constable (PG)

Friday 29 May 20267:30pm

Two of Britain’s greatest painters, J.M.W. Turner and John Constable were also the greatest of rivals. Born within a year of each other, both used landscape painting to reflect the changing world around them.


Tate Britain is bringing these two greats together for a groundbreaking exhibition, in London from November 2025 to April 2026, and Exhibition on Screen once again has exclusive and privileged access to bring their extraordinary art and remarkable stories to the big screen in March 2026 so that both can be enjoyed together. Don’t miss this opportunity to see these greats side-by-side, as they so often were in life, on the big screen for the first time.


Turner’s blazing sunsets and sublime scenes from his travels and Constable’s idealised depictions of beloved places from home whipped the public of the time into a frenzy of enthusiasm. Critics compared their starkly different styles to a clash of ‘fire and water’. Marking 250 years since their births, this unmissable new documentary explores Turner and Constable’s intertwined lives and legacies alongside the groundbreaking Tate exhibition. Discover unexpected sides to both artists with intimate views of sketchbooks and personal items and insights from leading experts. This is not to be missed.

9 To 5 The Musical, with music and lyrics by Dolly Parton and book by Patricia Resnick, is based on the seminal 1980 hit movie. Set in the late 1970s this hilarious story of friendship and revenge in the Rolodex era is outrageous, thought-provoking, and even a little romantic.

In a hilarious turn of events, Violet, Judy and Doralee live out their wildest fantasy - giving their boss the boot! While Hart remains "otherwise engaged," the women give their workplace a dream makeover, taking control of the company that had always kept them down. Hey, a girl can scheme, can't she?
