The incredibly talented Riz Ahmed produces and stars in this critically acclaimed Shakespeare adaptation, a film not screened at Chichester Cinema when first released in February. Here is your chance to see it now.
The Bard's most enduring tragedy is reimagined in a bold, modern adaptation set within London's elite South Asian community. When Hamlet (Ahmed) returns for his father's funeral, he is stunned to discover his uncle Claudius (Art Malik) is marrying his newly widowed mother (Sheeba Chaddha). Visited by his father's ghost, Hamlet learns the truth and spirals into a quest for vengeance that exposes the rot at the heart of the family's empire. Playing the title character as a fragile man dangerously unravelling, Ahmed brings considerable passion to indelible lines - but the real force comes from the emotional authenticity he lends one of drama’s most formidable and familiar roles. Timothy Spall co-stars as Polonius.
