Mother and Son

In the late 1980s, Rose moves from the Ivory Coast to the Paris suburbs with her two young sons, Ernest and Jean. Spanning 20 years from their arrival in France to the present day, the film is the moving chronicle of the construction and deconstruction of a family.

Union Films Cinema has refreshments available from bar 3 at showings with popcorn sold for as little as £1.50, so make sure to leave some time to grab some refreshments before the film starts!  

The cinema is located in Building 42, past reception down the stairs to level 3 next to Bar 3. An accessible route would be to take the lift by The Bridge to level 3 and take a right past the Plant pot

The Organisers

Union Films is your student-run cinema, right at the heart of Highfield Campus. Located in the Union, we're completely run by volunteers; from the from the front of house staff who sell tickets and refreshments, to the projectionists who show the films on our 35mm and digital projectors. You can help out as much or as little as you like, and when you do, you get to see films for free!

We are the University of Southampton Students’ Union (also called "SUSU"). We are here to represent the voice of students at every level and ultimately make their university experience unforgettable. Independent from the University, we're run by students, for students!
