Agatha is coming to Warwick Arts Centre University of Warwick next weekend! 🎥 🌱

Join us for a special one-off screening of AGATHA’S ALMANAC, a beautifully observed documentary portrait of 90-year-old Agatha Bock, who lives independently on her ancestral farm in rural Manitoba, Canada.

Filmed over six years by director Amalie Atkins, the film offers a gentle yet powerful reflection on self-sufficiency, resilience, seasonal living, seed-saving, and our relationship with the natural world. Through Agatha's daily rituals and deep connection to the land, AGATHA’S ALMANAC invites us to consider a slower, more intentional way of life.

Two films we can’t stop thinking about. UK Green Film Festival 2026 is coming to Phoenix Leicester with one-off screenings this June-July.

AGATHA’S ALMANAC (Sun 21st June 15:00) quietly pulls you into the world of 90-year-old Agatha Bock, who still lives and works on her family farm completely by hand. Shot over six years on beautiful 16mm film, it feels less like a documentary and more like stepping into someone else’s rhythm of life. It’s funny, moving and unexpectedly comforting. 🎟️ https://www.phoenix.org.uk/whats-on/programme/agathas-almanac

BLACK WATER (Thu 2nd July 18:00) looks ahead to a future that already feels frighteningly close. As rising seas threaten to swallow huge parts of Bangladesh, the film follows the human reality behind the headlines and statistics; families being pushed from their homes, cities stretched beyond breaking point, and the question of where millions of people are supposed to go when the water keeps rising. 🎟️ https://www.phoenix.org.uk/whats-on/programme/black-water
