Film Club - January

Film Club

City Library

Join fellow movie lovers each month for a screening and discussion in a relaxed setting.

Join us at Cairns City library on the third Friday of every month for a free movie screening!

Watch a film in the comfort of the library and stick around afterwards to chat with fellow movie lovers.

This month's film is I Daniel Blake.

Daniel Blake (59) has worked as a joiner most of his life in Newcastle. Now, for the first time ever, he needs help from the State. He crosses paths with single mother Katie and her two young children, Daisy and Dylan. Katie’s only chance to escape a one-roomed homeless hostel in London has been to accept a flat in a city she doesn’t know, some 300 miles away. Daniel and Katie find themselves in no-man’s land, caught on the barbed wire of welfare bureaucracy as played out against the rhetoric of ‘striver and skiver’ in modern-day Britain.
