Screening of the fantasy romance 'Wicker', in which a fisherwoman commissions a husband made of wicker, starring Olivia Colman and Alexander Skarsgård.
Wicker is coming to The Odyssey Cinema for a run of eight dates, starting on Friday 20 November and running through to Thursday 3 December. It's a fantasy romance set on the edge of a sleepy seaside village, and it's directed by Alex Huston Fischer and Eleanor Wilson.
The story follows a fisherwoman who's ridiculed by her neighbours and decides to commission a husband made entirely of wicker from a local Basket Weaver. To her astonishment, the creation comes to life, and as gossip and jealousy spread, her extraordinary romance threatens to turn the conventional community upside down. The film is described as wonderfully eccentric, a quirky tale of outsiders and unconventional desires.
It's a big cast, too. Olivia Colman and Alexander Skarsgård take the leads, with Peter Dinklage, Elizabeth Debicki, Richard E. Grant and Ella Bruccoleri also in the mix. It runs 105 minutes and carries a 15 rating.
