"Much Ado About Dying" Screening and Q&A with Simon Chambers - Glasgow Film Theatre

Organised by Cosmic Cat Films

Glasgow Film Theatre, 12 Rose St, Glasgow G3 6RB

This event is open to the public.

Cosmic Cat Films are proud to launch the new film "Much Ado About Dying" in cinemas across Scotland to coincide with Demystifying Death Week.

The film is a gloriously eccentric and thought provoking look at what it means to live. The award-winning documentary follows long-retired actor David Newlyn Gale, living in an unsuitable flat, sustaining himself on cans of soup, keeping himself warm with a small army of electric heaters and battling a mice infestation with toothpaste. The film presents an intimate, occasionally funny and ultimately moving portrait of a solitary life and a quietly critical assessment of the inadequate resources available in the UK for a rapidly ageing population. 

This screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Simon Chambers. The introduction and Q&A will be live captioned.
