Following the success of last year’s Wee Green Cinema organisers are delighted to bring a diverse and engaging programme that showcases the best of what the Southside has to offer.

Opening with a bang, creak and a clatter, guests are invited to cautiously tiptoe to Pollok House ​on June 2 for the atmospheric opening screening of 1961 psychological thriller The Innocents ​starring Deborah Kerr and ranked by Martin Scorsese as one of the scariest films of all time. Guests will also be invited to dine on a luxurious two course dinner which will be served in the servants quarters of the haunted Pollok House​.

This year’s programme is peppered with immersive screenings - a screen will be erected in the main pool for a special late night screening of David Robert Mitchell’s 2004 horror, It Follows ​at Govanhill Baths ​on June 3 ​with its atmospheric and creepy swimming pool scene. And on June 4 with The Ethereal Wireless of the Dreaming Mind at House For an Art Lover (HAL) ​artist Morwenna Kearsley contemplates HAL as a cinematic character. These unique venues allow the festival to make the most of the wonderfully diverse and historical surroundings of Glasgow’s Southside.
