Good People

PLEASE NOTE: Our film screenings for the next few weeks at Forum North will be on TUESDAYS not Thursdays as the venue is not available to us then.

So, on TUESDAY, the 4th June at 6pm, WFS will be screening the powerful and inspiring story set in Sudan, Goodbye Julia.

Our 8pm screening will be this year's Oscar winner for Best international film, The Zone of Interest.

Goodbye Julia
2023, Drama, English subtitles,
Rated M, 105 mins

Mona is a wealthy woman from the North of Khartoum. Her comfortable life as a professional singer is thrown into chaos when she accidentally causes the death of a poor man from the the Southern region.

With Southern Sudan campaigning for secession from the North, Mona decides to try to secretly atone for the man's death by employing Julia, his unsuspecting widow, as her live-in maid so she has a home for herself and her young son.

A wonderful story about overcoming prejudice and seeking forgiveness. - Film Online

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
