Winter of the Crow

Lesley Manville (Phantom Thread, Another Year) gives a mesmerising performance alongside Tom Burke (Strike, Black Bag) in this gripping Soviet-era thriller based on a short story by Nobel Prize-winning author Olga Tokarczuk (Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead). 

Warsaw, 1981. British academic Joan Andrews (Manville) is visiting a Polish university when a violent political protest erupts. Caught up in the chaos, she witnesses a brutal murder by the secret police, capturing the evidence on her Polaroid camera. Trapped behind the Iron Curtain, she is thrust into a deadly game of espionage between student rebels and government operatives, where no one can be trusted and the consequences could spiral into World War III. 

Please note that there are no trailers at Towner Cinema, so the times advertised are the film start times.
