This event has passed.

A chance encounter and the spark of romance in the first of the Before films

As part of Staycation Festival in the Howard Assembly Room and Kino, don’t miss this marathon of movie magic, as we screen all three films in the Before trilogy in one day. Book an antipasti picnic basket, handmade by the team at Kino, to enjoy at your table during the film and settle in…

Richard Linklater’s Before trilogy was filmed over 18 years, and follows the same couple, Céline and Jesse (played by Julie Delpy and Ethan Hawke) as they meet, fall in and out of love, and travel through some of Europe’s most glamorous locations.

Before Sunrise takes place on a single night in Vienna, where the couple first encounter each other, and wander the streets of the Austrian capital till dawn. They promise to meet again in 6 months…

“essentially a film about people talking. But when the talk’s this good, this absorbing and revealing and witty and true, who’s going to complain?”
– Philip Kemp, Total Film
