Geoff from Central Whangarei

Good People

PLEASE NOTE: Our film screenings for the next few weeks at Forum North will be on TUESDAYS not Thursdays as the venue is not available then.

So, on TUESDAY, the 28th May at 6pm, WFS will be screening this year's Oscar winning film for Best international film, The Zone of Interest.

Our 8pm screening will be the fascinating documentary on the NZ modernist artist, Frances Hodgkins in Anything But A Still Life.

The Zone of Interest
UK, 2023, Historical Drama, 105 mins
(English subtitles), Rated M

Winner of this year's Oscar for Best International Film, The Zone of Interest is based on the 2014 novel by Martin Amis.

Rudolf Höss is the commandant of Auschwitz. He and his wife, Hedwig strive to create a happy life for their children in a luxury home and gardens in the "Zone of Interest" which has been built right next to the concentration camp.

A brilliant examination of human complicity. - The Playlist
