LOLLIPOP

WEDNESDAY 01 JULY | ALL SITES

In this absorbing drama, Posy Sterling (The Outrun) delivers a powerful performance as Molly, a young mum from East London who has lost everything while in prison. After serving four months, Molly assumes it will be a matter of hours before she can collect her kids from foster care - but she now faces a longer ordeal than anticipated...

Molly finds herself in the mother of all catch-22s: she can’t get housing because she doesn’t have her kids living with her; but she can’t get them back without a roof over her head. Molly has just six months to get housing and turn her life around before a judge in the family court makes the final determination whether her children will remain in long-term foster care, or return to live with her.

A glimmer of hope in Molly’s world is reconnecting with her best friend from school, Amina, who also finds herself on hard times. Leaning on their friendship, can Molly and Amina beat the system and take destiny into their own hands?

THE INVITE

FRIDAY 03 JULY | LIGHT HOUSE CUBA
SATURDAY 04 JULY | LIGHT HOUSE PETONE & PAUATAHANUI

$18.00 tickets for Light Club members!

Olivia Wilde directs and stars in The Invite, a fiercely energised dinner party dramedy filled with insecurities, jealously, and sexual tension.

Joe (Seth Rogen) and Angela (Wilde) are on thin ice. Sexually desolate and constantly at each other’s throats, they feel primed for a crack that will tear them apart entirely. But one night, unbeknownst to Joe, Angela has invited over their neighbours, Piña (Penélope Cruz) and Hawk (Edward Norton), for dinner. While their free-spirited and sexually liberated demeanour bothers Joe, Angela finds herself intrigued. But as the two couples get to know each other, what begins as an evening of small talk soon turns to the unearthing of long-tenured grievances, failed aspirations, and sexual shortcomings

ISLANDS

WEDNESDAY 15 JULY | ALL SITES

Tom (Sam Riley, Control) is the tennis coach at a luxurious island hotel, filling his time between lessons with booze and brief affairs. The arrival of the Maguire family pulls Tom out of his normal routine and he strikes up a relationship with Anne (Stacy Martin, The Brutalist), her husband Dave (Jack Farthing, Spencer) and their son Anton. Tom is unable to shake the feeling that he has met Anne before, and this tension grows between them until one night, Dave goes missing and the police investigation points to both Anne and Tom as suspects. With Islands, Festival audiences are in for a “scorching, sun-frazzled Hitchcockian delight” (The Standard).

SAVAGE HOUSE

WEDNESDAY 22 JULY | ALL SITES

Set against the backdrop of 18th century England, a massive pox outbreak, and Jacobite uprising – this is a timely and darkly satirical story of Sir Chauncey Savage and Lady Savage and their blind pursuit of a better life. It is not without a tinge of irony that their family name is the Savages, for this is a Savage House indeed. Filled with duels, decadence, and bloodshed, this is a madcap play on class and power.
