Senior Cinema: The Piano

Full Description

After a long voyage from Scotland, pianist Ada McGrath (Holly Hunter) and her young daughter, Flora (Anna Paquin), are left with all their belongings, including a piano, on a New Zealand beach. Ada, who has been mute since childhood, has been sold into marriage to a local man named Alisdair Stewart (Sam Neill). Making little attempt to warm up to Alisdair, Ada soon becomes intrigued by his Maori-friendly acquaintance, George Baines (Harvey Keitel), leading to tense, life-altering conflicts.

Trinity Senior Cinema is an initiative designed to combat social isolation amongst older generations.

Films are recommended by members, the house lights will not be completely turned down, subtitles where available and there will be a 15 minute interval with refreshments. While the screenings are open to the public, please be aware of these altered conditions.

If you have any questions, please email Jason, call him on 07587 537308, or speak to one of the team on the morning of the screening.

We also run other groups for older adults every Wednesday: Moving with Music and Senior Sing, both in Tunbridge Wells and Tonbridge.
