Screening in European Cinema Club over the next few Monday lunch times in Miss Fletcher's Room T1.1 is the French film 'April and the Extraordinary World' (2015).

It is an animated adventure film with rating PG. Here is the synopsis:

In 1941, the world is radically different from the one we know from history books. Geopolitics has developed strangely: Napoleon V rules France and, for the last 70 years, scholars have been mysteriously disappearing, depriving mankind of their inventions. Without radio, television, electricity, aviation, and the combustion engine, the world is mired in outdated technology, dozing in the previous century's knowhow dominated by coal and steam. In this bizarre universe, Avril, a teenage girl, Darwin, her talking cat, Pops, her grandfather, and Julius, a young scoundrel and police informer, go off in search of Avril's parents, two of the missing scientists. The quartet will face many dangers and mysteries in this strange new Rigged World.

This weeks screening is Arthur Christmas (U), an animation about the magic behind the Santa Claus. The film will start at 1.20pm on Tuesday 11th December in the Library and continue on Wednesday and Thursday the same week. If you would like to watch the film but not yet a member, you can collect a sign up sheet from Mrs Gourley in Maths (M1.3) or Mr Plain in the Library. The library will be closed to non-film club members.
