THE WHITE CROW (12A) – 2019 UK/Serbia/USA 127 mins

The 2.30pm screening is subtitled for people with hearing loss

Director: Ralph Fiennes
Stars: Oleg Ivenko, Adèle Exarchopoulos, Ralph Fiennes

In the early 1960s, the Cold War didn’t prevent the Soviet authorities from sending the renowned Kirov Ballet to Paris, to demonstrate their cultural refinement. This unleashed the electrifying talent of a young Rudolf Nureyev, but the freedom he experienced also caused him to question whether he could ever find fulfilment in Russia. Director Fiennes offers a balanced portrait of an inscrutable man – played by Ukrainian dancer Ivenko in an astonishing debut – in a true story that also becomes a gripping suspense thriller.

Ralph Fiennes’ best film yet as a director – ★★★★ Geoffrey Macnab, The Independent
