What we’re about
We meet regularly to watch and discuss films.
We usually see a movie together at a cinema in the Nottingham area (usually the Broadway Cinema) and then discuss it over a drink and a meal (usually in the Broadway Cafe).
We enjoy a wide range of genres: great classics, international and art films, and the latest major releases.
CODE OF CONDUCT: When we discuss a film, it is important to show respect to other people's opinions. We go around expressing each member's impressions and comments on the movie: we must let every person speak without interrupting. Disagreements are welcome, but must always be polite.

Summary:
As the star player at an elite youth tennis academy, Julie's life revolves around the game she loves. She trains hard, pausing only for class or physical therapy before returning to the gym fixated on making it into the Belgian Tennis Federation. When her coach Jérémy is suddenly suspended following the suicide of one of his female protégées, all the players at the academy are encouraged to speak up about their experiences with him. Julie, however, decides to keep quiet. Despite strong suspicions from those around her that Julie's relationship with Jérémy was inappropriate at best, her persistent silence begins to speak volumes. Confused and full of anxiety, the pressure she once channeled solely towards training shifts inward, affecting her confidence, her focus, and her game. Executive produced by tennis champion Naomi Osaka, JULIE KEEPS QUIET is a "tense, taut, artfully hushed debut feature" (Variety) by Belgian writer-director Leonardo van Dijl. Led by newcomer Tessa Van den Broeck whose performance embodies the different ways trauma is internalized, JULIE KEEPS QUIET respectfully and empathetically examines why some victims choose to remain silent.
