22nd September, 6:30pm, St John’s Centre, Mansfield, Nottinghamshire

A new community cinema, Kino Koło Notts in Mansfield town gets ready for first ever film night screening of Polish comedy classic, The Cruise (Rejs) on the 22nd of September at St John’s Centre, Mansfield.

The screening will be in Polish language with English subtitles. Regarded as Polish cinema’s first ‘cult film’, Piwowski’s The Cruise is also considered by many to be a satirical masterpiece. Shot in a quasi-documentary style, with a cast featuring mostly non- professional actors, the absurd plot parodies life in the (then) People’s Republic of Poland, reducing a weekend river cruise to a hilarious parody of the entire Communist system.

Liam from Kino Koło Notts said:

“I’m really excited for our first screening in my home town of Mansfield. I think it’s important that the local cultural offer is representative of the wider town; it’s a view that’s shared by the whole team at Kino Koło. Film is a fantastic way to learn about other cultures, and we hope the whole town will join us in watching this much loved classic of Polish comedy.”

Ellie from Cinema For All said:

“We are delighted to be working with Kino Koło Notts – their passion, determination and ideas
have been buzzing around for the last few months and it is great to see it result in this first
screening! By bringing Polish film to the big screen they are not only providing a platform for
more diverse cinema, but also an opportunity for audiences to meet and connect with each
other.”
