Coming Soon

A key member of iconic bands The Dirty Three and Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, multi-instrumentalist and renowned film composer Warren Ellis has cut a brilliant and unorthodox figure in music for over three decades. Far from the international concert halls in which he has plied his craft lies a very different passion project: a wildlife sanctuary in the forests of Sumatra. Co-founded by Ellis and spearheaded by the indomitable Femke den Haas, whose dedicated team of conservationists rescue trafficked and mistreated animals and then devote years to nursing them back to health. This fly-on-the-wall documentary offers both a deeply personal insight into one artist’s life through the act of creating and an inspiring reminder of how much can be achieved when passionate people come together to do great things to impact the world around them. Join us after the screening for a Q&A with Warren Ellis, hosted by Paul Richards of Scared to Dance. Guests have included Manic Street Preachers’ Nicky Wire, Turner Prize-winning artist Jeremy Deller, The National’s Matt Berninger, Franz Ferdinand’s Alex Kapranos, Belle and Sebastian’s Stuart Murdoch, Blur, John Grant, Lawrence, comedians Rose Matafeo, Nish Kumar, Elis James, Josie Long, Ivo Graham, Sophie Duker and Robin Ince, the writers Jon Ronson and Will Hodgkinson and directors Bernard MacMahon, Paul Kelly and Toby L.
