and live on Freeview channel 276
The tiny cinema in High Street, which has a loyal following, not only screens a wide variety of films but has hosted live music events, festivals, talks and cabaret over the years. It is run by volunteers.
To mark the 20 year anniversary the cinema has put up an eye-catching banner across the High Street. It is also screening a number of films which celebrate independent cinemas, such as the 1988 classic Cinema Paradiso.
