About this Event


Join us at the Goethe-Institut Glasgow for a screening of Silent Friend by Ildikó Enyedi with English subtitles on the big screen in our hall.
Set in the botanical garden of a medieval university town in Germany, "Silent Friend" centres on a majestic tree which is observing humans. The film is set in three different eras – 1908, 1972 and 2020 – and tells three human stories shaped and transformed by the plants surrounding them over more than one hundred years.
"Silent Friend" is the seventh feature film by the Golden Bear-winning Hungarian director Ildiko Enyedi and marks the first time that the acclaimed Hong Kong actor Tony Leung Chiu-wai has acted in a European film following such productions as "In The Mood For Love" and "Lust, Caution".
