Fancy a Friday film to drive away the January blues?
Here's a list of what's on this Friday at the Watermans:
A Hero
Rahim (Amir Jadidi) is in prison because of a debt he was unable to repay. During a two-day leave, he tries to convince his creditor (Mohsen Tanabandeh) to withdraw his complaint against the payment of part of the sum. But things don't go as planned.
From the two-time Academy Award-winning director Asghar Farhadi for The Salesman (2017) and The Separation (2011).

Munich - The Edge of War
Based on the international bestseller by Robert Harris. It is Autumn 1938 and Europe stands on the brink of war. Adolf Hitler is preparing to invade Czechoslovakia and Neville Chamberlain's government desperately seeks a peaceful solution. With the pressure building, Hugh Legat, British civil servant, and Paul von Hartmann, German diplomat, travel to Munich for the emergency Conference. As negotiations begin, the two old friends find themselves at the centre of a web of political subterfuge and very real danger. With the whole world watching, can war be averted and, if so, at what cost?
4pm
Boiling Point
Enter the relentless pressure of a restaurant kitchen as a head chef (Stephen Graham) wrangles his team on the busiest day of the year.
The film will be followed by a pre-recorded 25 minutes Q&A filmed at the Genesis Cinema, London hosted by film critic Anna Smith.
Director - Philip Barantini
