High up on the Tibetan plateau. Amongst unexplored and inaccessible valleys lies one of the last sanctuaries of the wild world, where rare and undiscovered fauna lives. Vincent Munier, one of the world’s most renowned wildlife photographers takes the adventurer and novelist Sylvain Tesson (In the Forest of Siberia) with him on his latest mission. For several weeks, they’ll explore these valleys searching for unique animals and try to spot the snow leopard, one of the rarest and most difficult big cats to approach.
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

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!
