Whangarei Film Society - Screenings for Thursday June 29th

Geoff from Central Whangarei

Good People

For Thursday, the 29th June at 6pm we are screening the heart warming Australian film, A Stitch in Time.

Our 8pm screening is Blueback, a film based on the book of the same name by Tim Winton.

Both screenings will be in the Capitaine Bougainville Theatre.

A Stitch In Time
Australia, 2022, Drama, 92 mins, Rated M
Cast: Maggie Blinco, Glenn Shorrock, Belinda Giblin, John Gregg.

A retired dressmaker, Liebe begins to make clothes for money again after her partner loses his job as a singer in a pub.

In the process of regaining her skills, Liebe attracts the interest of younger designers, who are fascinated with her traditional techniques and use of tulle and sequins. As such, Liebe gains a following and her newfound popularity reignites her passion for her craft and opens a door to a new chapter in her career and life.

"Funny and inspirational. This is the story of everyone's life. A movie for all ages."

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
