Hanami + Short (Jali Film Weekender)

On a remote volcanic island from which everyone wants to leave, Nana learns to stay. Her mother Nia, who suffers from a mysterious illness, left shortly after her birth. When Nana comes down with a high fever, she is sent to the foot of a volcano for treatment. There, she encounters a world suspended between dreams and reality. Years later, when Nana is a teenager, Nia returns. The feature will be screened alongside short film: <i>Kavalyé O Dam</i> (dir. Teboul Sacha, France, 2023, French with English subtitles, 9m) <i>Scottish Premiere</i> Simon takes his estranged father’s car and some old cassettes to visit his grandma Maryse at the nursing home. When he plays the cassettes for her the music unexpectedly resuscitates both Maryse’s body and mind. <b>This screening will be followed by a free creative workshop facilitated by Keisha Rowe. Participants will engage in reflective discussion and free writing based on responses to the film, utilising collage and carbon transfer printing to build images inspired by their words with themes of dreams and apparitions. <a href="https://forms.gle/ziwBqZFYkzCPiwt27">Register your interest here.</a></b>PT1H42M152025-11-01
