About this Event

Deaf Action's BSL Film Club presents The Holdovers.

A curmudgeonly instructor at a New England prep school remains on campus during Christmas break to babysit a handful of students with nowhere to go. He soon forms an unlikely bond with a brainy but damaged troublemaker, and with the school's head cook, a woman who just lost a son in the Vietnam War.

This is an inclusive and accessible film club specifically designed for the deaf and hard-of-hearing communities, offering films with subtitles and open discussions in BSL after each screening. You'll even get free tea, biscuits and popcorn will be provided with your ticket!

All screenings are Pay What You Can, meaning that you may wish to pay £10, £5, or access the screening for free, depending on your situation. The proceeds will go to future screenings and BSL Film Club events.

Our venue is wheelchair accessible. There is a platform lift at the front door for wheelchair users to access the building. There is a lift from the ground floor to the Blackwood Bar area, accessible on the left upon entry to the venue. Accessible toilets can be found on the first floor also.

All films will be shown with descriptive subtitles.

While this is a BSL film club, all audiences with varying sign language fluency are welcome.

Please note, there will be no BSL/English Interpreters provision.
