The Old Oak

THE OLD OAK

Shown on the big screen at the Grange!

Saturday, November 9
7:30

The Old Oak is the last pub standing in a town that has fallen on hard times. When a bus full of Syrian refugees arrive, a handful of the regulars treat them with racism and contempt. Then the pub’s owner strikes up a friendship with a young, Syrian photographer that opens up new possibilities for the divided village. By the director of I, Daniel Blake and Sorry We Missed You.
