From the makers of Despicable Me and The Secret Life of Pets, Sing is set in a world like ours but entirely inhabited by animals. Buster Moon is a koala presiding over a once-grand theatre, now fallen on hard times. Faced with the crumbling of his life’s ambition, he plans to hold a singing competition to restore this fading jewel. His contestants; a mouse who croons as smoothly as he cons, a timid elephant, an overtaxed mother pig, a gangster gorilla and a punk-rock porcupine, each believing this is their chance to change their world.
Félicie, a young orphan girl with a passion for dancing, dreams of becoming a ballerina. With the help of her best friend Victor she escapes from the orphanage where she lives and travels all the way to Paris. There she manages to trick her way into the position of pupil at the Grand Opera house, but her challenges and adventures have only just begun. For every little girl who dreams of being a ballerina, this is a funny and touching animated story about friendship, self-confidence and family.
Dorothea is a determined single mother in her mid-50s who runs a boarding house in 1979 California. Faced with the task of raising her teenage son, she enlists the help of two younger women - Abbie, a quirky punk photographer living as a boarder in their home, and Julie her son’s shrewd best friend - to serve as role models in an ever-changing world. A delightful celebration of the complexities of family and the connections we search for our whole lives. SCREENING: Feb: 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23.
