Midsommar
From horror prodigy Ari Aster (Hereditary) comes a dread-soaked cinematic fairy-tale about a group of friends travelling to the midsummer parties in Sweden. The shorter the nights, the more disturbing the scenes that occur.
Dani and Christian are a young American couple with a relationship on the brink of falling apart. But after a family tragedy keeps them together, a grieving Dani invites herself to join Christian and his friends on a trip to a once-in-a-lifetime midsummer festival in a remote Swedish village. What begins as a carefree summer holiday in a land of eternal sunlight takes a sinister turn when the insular villagers invite their guests to partake in festivities that render the pastoral paradise increasingly unnerving and viscerally disturbing.
Midsommar: Join The Cult
On the longest day of the year, there’s really only one film we could possibly screen. Midsommar, where the sun barely sets and the festivities become increasingly unsettling, proves that broad daylight can sometimes be far more terrifying than darkness.
Come dressed in white
To mark this midsummer celebration, we invite visitors to wear white to the screening, inspired by traditional Scandinavian traditions and the film’s iconic visual language.
