Good People

For Thursday, the 27th October at 6pm, WFS will be screening the Spanish satire, The Good Boss.

Our 8pm session will be the English comedy, Ali and Ava.

Re COVID-19: While the government has eased restrictions, mask wearing and observing social distancing is still welcome at our film nights. Please show courtesy to others and their health needs, particularly around the bar and food areas. Thank you.

The Good Boss
Spanish with English subtitles
Cast: Javier Bardem
Rated M - Strong language and nudity.

Benevolent patriarch, Julio Blanco [Javier Bardem] is CEO of a family company that manufactures precision industrial scales and his mission in life is to win a prestigious business award.

With the national committee about to arrive for an inspection, Julio does not care what he must do to win. So, in front of the media, he is all smiles when giving a pep talk to his employees about the importance of community. But behind the scenes, Julio is ruthless with staff and fixates on shutting down a local protest taking place across the road from his factory.

Tickets: Door sales only. Price: $10 for WFS members, $15 for non members.

Cash only please - no Eftpos/credit card services available.
