Milborne Port Village Hall, in conjunction with Moviola, are showing The
Father (certificate 12A) on Friday 19th November 2021. Doors open at
1900, with the show starting at 1930. For those with hearing difficulties the
show will be connected to the audio hearing loop that is fitted in the hall.

Having just scared off his recent caregiver, Anthony, (Anthony Hopkins)
an ailing, octogenarian Londoner gradually succumbing to dementia, feels
abandoned when concerned Anne (Olivia Colman), his daughter, tells him
she’s moving to Paris.
Confused and upset, against the backdrop of a warped perspective and his
rapid, heart-rending mental decline, Anthony is starting to lose his
grip on reality, struggling to navigate the opaque landscape of present
and past.
Now, as faded memories and glimpses of lucidity trigger sudden mood
swings, dear ones, Anthony’s surroundings, and even time itself become
distorted.
Why has his younger daughter stopped visiting?
Who are the strangers that burst in on Anthony?
