Screening of the film The Old Oak

18 June 2024 at 7 pm, Kino Film Europe, Štefánikova 25, Bratislava

The Old Oak is the story of a village in the Northeast of England. Many have left what was once a thriving, proud community which now struggles to keep old values alive. There is growing anger, resentment and a lack of hope, but houses are cheap and available. This makes it an ideal location for Syrian refugees. How will they be received? And what does the future hold for the last remaining pub in the village, The Old Oak?

The Old Oak, 2023, 113 min, directed by Ken Loach, written by Paul Laverty, English with Czech subtitles
