London Breeze is excited to be supporting the opening weekend of On Falling as it releases into cinemas across the UK. Writer and director of the film, Laura Carriera, will join us for a Q&A after the screening.

On Falling tells the story of Aurora (Joana Santos), a Portuguese migrant working as a warehouse picker in Edinburgh. Trapped between the confines of a vast distribution centre and the solitude of her own bedroom, Aurora seeks out every opportunity to resist the loneliness and alienation that threaten her sense of self.

BAFTA Longlisted for Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer and winner of the BFI London Film Festival Sutherland Award 2024 for the most original and imaginative directorial debut, Laura Carreira’s On Falling is co-produced by Ken Loach’s Sixteen Film production company.

“this is a very impressive debut”– ★★★★ The Guardian

“a clarion call for a new generation of social-realist cinema”– Variety (Guy Lodge)

“Laura Carreira, working with Ken Loach’s Sixteen Films, proves herself an empathetic inheritor of his mantle with an enveloping portrait of loneliness which doesn’t ask for pity or outrage.”– Screen International

“A Haunting Study Of Modern Serfdom”– Deadline 

“Each scene is a miniature marvel”– IndieWire

“Captivatingly crafted with powerful anti-capitalist sentiments, and a belter of a lead performance to boot, it’s a film that hypnotises and enrages simultaneously, keeping us absorbed with its empathy for the heroine.”– ★★★★ In Their Own League

London Breeze invites you to an unmissable preview screening of The End, the highly anticipated debut fiction film from Oscar-nominated director Joshua Oppenheimer (The Look of Silence 2016, The Act of Killing 2014). Join us for this exclusive event at Riverside Studios in Hammersmith on the 21st March at 6pm, featuring a special post-screening Q&A with acclaimed actor George MacKay (1917, Pride)- a rare opportunity to dive deeper into one of the most talked-about films of 2024/25

A haunting, visually stunning post-apocalyptic musical, The End takes us into the luxurious underground bunker of a wealthy family—played by Tilda Swinton, Michael Shannon, and George MacKay—as they await the collapse of the world above. As climate catastrophe and societal collapse render the Earth uninhabitable, their controlled existence is disrupted by the arrival of an unexpected survivor (Moses Ingram). With Oppenheimer’s signature bold storytelling and breathtaking cinematography, The End is a deeply moving meditation on privilege, survival, and the fragility of humanity.

Acclaimed as “notable for its ambition” by The Guardian, The End has already made waves on the festival circuit. The LA Times praises its “stunning cinematography and thought-provoking themes,” while IndieWire calls it “one of the most daring and unforgettable cinematic experiences of the year.”
