After the success of our first ‘At the movies’ session, we have booked a private screening for our second film. We will be watching the Penguin Lessons. The Salt Path is based on Raynor Winn’s 2018 memoir, and tells the true story of a couple who embark on a year-long coastal trek after suffering numerous setbacks.
Raynor and her husband Moth had been left homeless after they were evicted from their farm, not long after the latter had been diagnosed with the neurological condition corticobasal degeneration (CBD) – which often causes death within years.
Faced with such hardship, they decided to leave everything behind and attempt the Salt Path, an epic walk encompassing the coastline of Cornwall, Devon and Dorset. The film charts the highs and lows of their adventure and the memorable personalities they meet along the way.
The official synopsis teases that it is “a journey that is exhilarating, challenging, and liberating in equal measure. A portrayal of home, how it can be lost and rediscovered in the most unexpected ways.”
You can watch a trailer by clicking here.
This will be at Cineworld in Ipswich on Monday 6th June at 2pm.
The cost is £ 8.00 per head which includes car parking (register your car on the screen in the cinema)
