Successful professional London couple Sarah (Shirley Henderson) and Tom (Alan Tudyk) are in deep financial trouble. Their situation takes a terrifying nosedive with the shocking behaviour of uninvited dinner guest, Jessica (Indira Varma).
Faced with the moral dilemma of their lives - and dragging their best friends Richard (Rufus Sewell) and Beth (Olivia Williams) with them - they make a series of choices that could either be their salvation or destruction.
"Brims with charm, undercut by an uncurbed ruthlessly dark humour" - Sight and Sound.

New! Parent and Baby screening
Friday 7 June 12pm
A monthly screening exclusively for parents/carers with babies under 12 months. Babies can sleep, burble or cry – and parents/carers get a chance to catch up with some cinema. Babies go free! These screenings include Descriptive Subtitling when available and the sound will be lower than usual, and the lights up for your child's comfort.
We have started these screenings due to popular demand, however the cinema is not accessible for buggies due to our steep staircase therefore, and so all parents are kindly asked to bring their babies in a sling for the screenings as we have no buggy park or lift access. Please take special care on the stairs.
Please note that babies (under 12 months) are only allowed to attend our special Parent & Baby and Relaxed screenings, and may not be brought in to our regular screenings. Please see our Terms of Admittance.
