Followed by a q&a with Sally Potter.

Told almost entirely in iambic pentameter, YES is the story of a passionate love affair between an American woman (Joan Allen) and a Middle-Eastern man (Simon Abkarian), in which they confront some of the greatest conflicts of our generation - religious, political and sexual. Sam Neil plays the betrayed and betraying politician husband, Sheila Hancock the beloved aunt and Shirley Henderson the philosophical cleaner who witnesses the trail of dirt and heartbreak the lovers leave behind them, as they embark, on a journey that takes them from London and Belfast to Beirut and Havana.

This screening of Yes is part of a weekend of events celebrating the films of Sally Potter ahead of the release of her debut album Pink Bikini on 14 July.
