Starring: Anaita Wali Zada, Jeremy Allen White, Gregg Turkington, Hilda Schmelling, Avis See-tho

“I know I’m lucky,” says Donya (Anaita Wali Zada), a former translator for the US army who was forced to flee Afghanistan after the Taliban returned to power. But she doesn’t feel it. Her new life in Fremont, California, is lonely; the long, insomniac nights stretch endlessly. On a whim, she uses her job in a fortune cookie factory to send out a message to the world.

Featuring The Bear’s Jeremy Allen White, Babak Jalali's (Radio Days) assured black-and-white drama is a wise, coolly deadpan vision of the universal longing for home, aided by Anaita Wali Zada's poignant and humorous performance.

Guildhall Cinema Pricing:

We are applying a set of flat prices on all our films* so you always know how much it'll be to experience an amazing piece of Cinema at Guildhall. You can choose from three set prices: 
  
£11 Pay It Forward 
Choosing this price enables us to maintain our Open Concession ticket price. It includes a Standard ticket as well as an additional payment that we will use to maintain our accessible tickets. 
  
£8.50 Standard 
Our Standard ticket, always £8.50. 
  
£6 Open Concession 
Not everyone can access cinema at our standard price, so we are offering an Open Concession, where you can purchase a ticket at a reduced price if you need to. No need to prove why you need a reduced price ticket.
