Edward is a New York actor with neurofibromatosis and is shy and withdrawn. However, he is offered pioneering surgery and becomes a new man. His girlfriend writes a play about his early life, and Edward is keen to play himself in a mask. The arrival of an English actor, Oswald, who has the same condition as he has, begins to have an unnerving effect on Edward. “Arresting and challenging, with an exhilarating performance from Adam Pearson” (Peter Bradshaw in The Guardian)

Local resident and lead actor Adam Pearson will join us for a Q&A after the film.

After two sell out screenings, Adam Pearson has also agreed to join us for a third Q&A session following the afternoon screening  on Tuesday 26 November. Tickets are available here.
