Presented in collaboration with Cinema Mentiré.
Sunday's screening will have a live introduction from Cinema Mentiré.
This film is part of our season celebrating the films of Chilean director Maite Alberdi, running from July to September.
You can find the other films in the season and information about our wider year-long season spotlighting international female filmmakers, here.
Five elderly women consistently gather for tea time once a month, since they left school sixty years ago. In these meetings, they argue, reminisce about their shared past, and try hard to convey that they are still standing, forgetting for a moment the ailments they suffer. Afternoons go by, and it seems that nothing in their lives will change, until the absence of one of them makes them face a period of evident transformations.
Original title: La Once
Original language: Spanish
Presented with English subtitles
We're launching a new strand here at the Lexi called LEXI SELECTS!
Our programming team bring you a curated weekly release that didn't get the attention it deserved here. Some may be films we missed from earlier this year, some may be from a few years ago, but they're all exceptional films which we think our audience will adore.
Bora reunite for more unmissable Brazilian cinema at The Lexi Cinema in partnership with Cine Brazil!
Throughout August we're screening 4 Brazilian classics from the 2000s, and in September a bonus film to close things out.
Rewatch the saudosos classics or catch them for the first time on the big screen.
