The Summer Book [PG]

Directed by Charlie McDowell

Glenn Close plays the wise grandmother in this beautiful and restrained adaptation of Tove Jansson’s elegant and moving novel.

A family arrive, as they have done for many years, to their retreat on a small island in the Gulf of Finland. This time, however, someone is missing. Nature takes a leading role in the story’s exploration of grief and the delicate bonds between a young girl, her grandmother and her grieving father. A beautifully shot and unsentimental drama that has topped the independent film charts in recent weeks

Tickets £6 (£1 child/student) available on the door or in advance from the Buxton Opera House box-office (01298 72190) or online.
