The Secret of Kells

This dazzling Oscar-nominated animation is a sumptuous tale of friendship and creativity in medieval times. 

The first film in Tomm Moore and Nora Twomey’s celebrated Irish folklore trilogy. The Secret of Kells follows young Brendan, who lives in a remote outpost under siege from barbarian raids, and who finds a new life beckoning him when a master illuminator arrives – carrying the magical and unfinished Book of Kells, which brims with ancient wisdom and power. 

Please note there are no ads or trailers. The film will start 10 minutes after the advertised start time to allow everyone time to get comfortable.

Relaxed screening

Relaxed screenings are designed to welcome anyone who may benefit from a more informal and supportive environment - this can include families with young children, and people with an Autism Spectrum Condition, sensory or communication disorders, or a learning disability.

These screenings will have a relaxed approach to noise and movement in the cinema, and audience members are free to come and go as needed. A Quiet Space or chill-out area will be available, along with noise-cancelling headphones for both adults and children.

Relaxed screenings will have lower sound levels and also the lights will be slightly turned up in the cinema.
