Four Days in July (followed by panel discussion)

Imagine is delighted to present a rare showing of the brilliant Four Days in July – one of Mike Leigh’s very best, one to mention of the best films about “the Troubles”.

Four Days tells the stories of two working class Belfast families – one Protestant and one Catholic – both expecting newborn babies over the course of four days in July 1984.

Despite the turbulent sociopolitical backdrop, Leigh focuses instead on the small, everyday moments that both connect and separate these four parents-to-be, creating a profoundly human, strikingly naturalistic look at life on both sides of a bitter religious and political divide.

The film stars Paula Hamilton and Charlie Lawson as the Protestant couple, Lorraine and Billy, and Brid Brennan and Des McAleer as the Catholic couple, Collette and Eugene. Also look out for Stephen Rea in an early role!
