In association with the French Film Festival UK and Caistor Twinning Association, we will be screening "the intense and breathless political thriller", Une affaire de principe (Smoke Signals) as our November screening. The film is in French and English, with English subtitles.
Based on a true story, the film follows the European Commission for Health, John Dalli, who is accused of corruption in a scandal related to the tobacco industry. A French MEP suspects a set up by a tobacco manufacturer, potentially involving the President of the European Commission Jose Barroso. Against the odds, he decides to investigae and unravel this story, which shook the foundations of the entire European Commission.
The Town Hall will open from 6.30pm when refreshments and the Town Hall Bar will be available, with the screening starting at 7.30pm.
Tickets will be £5 and will be available online (no booking fee) at www.caistorcommunitycinema.org, at Caistor Post Office or on the door.
