Murieston Community Cinema is a community film group, part of the West Lothian Community Cinema Network, run by Murieston Community Development Trust in Murieston Village Hall. We’ll be showing a mix of occasional children’s films during school holidays and regular monthly films for an older audience. Events will be advertised on the Murieston Community Cinema Facebook page.
We will show 9 monthly films between September and June. The films are intended for adults and accompanied older children. All films will be rated 15 or under. All films will be British/independent films, which are intended to be thought-provoking. Prepare to laugh, prepare to cry, and prepare to be challenged at times. We will be surveying attendees to understand which films have been a success.
We hope you will BYOB and stay for a drink and a chat afterwards and have fun meeting other film-lovers in the community. Bring your own cushion too if you want a comfier seat.
The first three films have been chosen by the committee, with the theme of True Stories. In December and March we hope you will help us choose the next three films from a curated list.
Intended Dates (all 7pm):
29th September, 27th October, 1st December,
26th January, 23rd February, 30th March,
27th April, 1st June, 29th June.
