This new adventure begins with a cyber-attack that reveals the identity of all active undercover agents in Britain, leaving Johnny as the Secret Service’s last hope.

The next TTT film night is on Tuesday 23rd October when we will be showing an award winning film “Inside Peace” 77 mins

Inside Peace follows Trinidad, David and Jake for four years from their time in prison to their return to the outside world. They begin to drop their tough facades and transform the way they interact with people and their surroundings, as they put their lives back together from the inside out. “These stories bleed through Inside Peace, and they are crucial to it, but they’re only part of what the film is about. The men manage to take the message to heart that they have value as people – no simple lesson… This is where, for the viewer, the awe comes in .” Robert Koelher, Huffington Post.

THE FILM WILL BE FOLLOWED BY DISCUSSION LED BY TOTNES INSIDE PEACE GROUP WHO ARE PLANNING TO SET UP A LOCAL PROGRAMME

Venue: The Dartmouth Inn (The Plains), Totnes. (please support the bar by buying a drink as they provide a free venue)

Event Details

Bergman’s film of Mozart’s masterpiece is one of the greatest screen versions of an opera ever made. Shooting in Swedish on a set replicating a lovely 18th-century theatre, Bergman begins this wonderfully warm, witty and sensuous movie by focusing on the faces of a rapt audience (momentarily including his own) enjoying the overture. Thereafter, as the (abridged and intriguingly amended) tale of Tamino, Pamina et al proceeds, he highlights the piece’s exuberant theatrical illusionism, at the same time deploying close-ups to enhance the emotions conveyed by an excellent young cast. An admirably light touch is applied throughout, making for a performance of musical excellence, dramatic vitality and enormous, effortless charm.

Doors open for all manner of drinks at 2pm. Film starts at 3pm
