Michael is the cinematic portrayal of the life and legacy of one of the most influential artists the world has ever known.

Highlighting both his life off-stage and some of the most iconic performances from his early solo career, the film gives audiences a front-row seat to Michael Jackson as never before. This is where his story begins.

Following its successful North American streaming release, the Robert Burns Centre Film Theatre is proud to host a special homecoming screening of The Thistle in the Kiss.

Produced by Felt Like Running Productions and directed by filmmaker Craig Andrew Robertson, this is a unique opportunity to see a local story return to the community where it was born.

“Getting dumped on Christmas Day was just the beginning.”

Declan’s holiday season is in absolute ruins. After his girlfriend, Stephanie, breaks up with him on the way to Christmas dinner, he manages to keep the split a secret—until New Year’s Day. Stranded in the middle of the Scottish countryside after a car breakdown, Declan is joined by his sister, Rachel. What starts as a simple rescue mission quickly spirals into a tense roadside reckoning. As secrets emerge and tempers flare, Declan is forced to confront the string of poor life decisions that led him to this moment.

A Homegrown Story: Shot almost entirely in Dumfries & Galloway—specifically featuring the stunning, rugged backdrop of the Mennock Pass—the production team is thrilled to bring the film back to the region for this special event.

Experience this evocative piece of independent cinema on the big screen in the heart of Dumfries.

Henri-Georges Clouzot's classic, nail-biting suspense thriller won both The Golden Bear and the Palme d'Or in 1953.

Clouzot's classic suspense thriller follows four desperate men as they embark on a treacherous journey, transporting a volatile cargo of nitro-glycerine to a massive oil well fire. Friendships and courage are pushed to the limit in this nail-biting thriller by a director who would go on to be dubbed the ‘French Hitchcock’. In French, English, Spanish, German, Italian and Russian with English subtitles.

While the Monday Night Film Club takes its summer break, we thought we'd bring you one off monthly screenings on a Tuesday in June, July and August. It’s a Film + Discussion + Coffee evening and everyone is welcome to attend. No membership required.

We're delighted to be screening a documentary from locally born filmmaker, Glenda Rome, who will also provide an introduction and there will be a short Q&A session after the film.

Along rugged coastlines, through ancient forests, and into the geological bedrock of Scotland’s wild places, Expressing the Earth embarks on a cinematic journey into Geopoetics - the philosophy developed by the late Scottish poet-thinker Kenneth White, which seeks a deeper connection between mind, language, and the living world.

This powerful debut feature by Glenda Rome is a meditation on perception and belonging - guided by White’s poetry and thought, yet grounded in the Earth itself. Through immersive cinematography and the voices of artists, geologists, and thinkers influenced by his work, the film explores where landscape and mindscape meet, revealing a space where geology, art, and inner reflection converge.

A poetic and thought-provoking journey, Expressing the Earth invites us to look again at our relationship with the planet - and to rediscover the creative connection between human perception and the living Earth.

About the Director: Glenda is a Scottish filmmaker whose cinematic work bridges art, environmental and human connection. For over two decades she has worked internationally on documentaries and community projects — from collaborating with Indigenous communities in the Ecuadorian rainforest and Iñupiat people in Alaska, to helping young and under-represented voices tell their own stories through film.

A gifted piano tuner's meticulous skills for tuning pianos lead him to discover an unexpected aptitude for cracking safes, turning his life upside down.

Leo Woodall stars as a gifted young piano tuner whose heightened sense of hearing draws the attention of criminals, who see his talents as useful for opening safes as for tuning Steinways. With his once-promising musical career over, he works across New York with his mentor Harry Horowitz (Academy Award-winner Dustin Hoffman), encountering a range of characters, including composition student Ruthie (Havana Rose Liu), with whom he forges an unexpected connection. Niki’s safecracking work threatens his budding romance with Ruthie and pulls him into increasingly dangerous territory. Blending romance, drama, and the taut suspense of a heist thriller, TUNER also features performances from Tony Award-winner Tovah Feldshuh, Jean Reno, and Lior Raz.

After a therapist's patient disappears into a dimension beyond reality, she must venture into the unknown to save him. Parsons' film is inspired by an urban legend, sparked by a creepy image posted online and stars Chiwetel Ejiofor and Renate Reinsve (seen most recently in Sentimental Value).

“A brilliant and terrifying vision. Beautifully claustrophobic, intense, anguishing, and downright disturbing. The film delivers excellent world-building, breathtaking suspense, and truly earned scares. Renate Reinsve and Chiwetel Ejiofor are great, but the production design is the real standout.” – Courtney Howard (Fresh Friction)
