Rumba, in selected cinemas from Friday 31st July
Now this is a film to get excited about. Highly stylised, entirely original, startlingly optimistic and very, very funny, this 77 minute treat from directing trio Dominique Abel, Fiona Gordon and Bruno Romy, is a charming fusion of film and physical theatre. Like a breath of very fresh sea air, the expert cast employ movement and dance to convey narrative and emotion, with hardly any dialogue. It’s quirky in the very best sense of that slightly irritating word. It’s the type of innovative style we have seen occasionally in short film, but which is very rarely given the chance to blossom into a feature. Well, this time, thanks to the creative investment of Belgium and France, it has – and we suggest you don’t miss out!
Our friends at the ICA have very kindly given us 3 pairs of tickets to give away to you lucky readers for the opening night: Friday 31st July, at 8.15pm.
