CINEMA Obscura’s April screening, the last in its current season at Wiveliscombe Primary School New Hall, is Neruda (15).

The film, in Spanish and French with English subtitles and directed by Pablo Larrain, is set in Chile in 1948.

Poet and Communist senator Pablo Neruda finds himself on the wrong side of the new pro-American regime. He goes on the run but fedora-wearing detective Oscar Peluchonneau is hot on his trail.

Starring Luis Gnecco and Gael García Bernal, the film plays out like a road movie, inviting the audience to soar alongside Neruda in his poetry, his memory and his deeply held sometimes paradoxical political ideals.

Neruda is being shown on Sunday (April 15) – doors open 7pm and the film starts 7.30pm. Guest membership is £5.
