Weekend  - 8pm at The Cube
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Tender modern classic of queer romance, veering from euphoric YES moments to darker explorations of modern British prejudice. Andrew Haigh’s breakout film is as understated, vulnerable and sensual as two people talking and making love can possibly get (move aside Before Sunrise)."

Dir: Andrew Haigh, 2011, U.K., 97 mins, Cert: 18

With his new film All of Us Strangers (playing at the Cube 3rd/4th March) causing collective swoons as it arrives in cinemas, it's time to revisit to Andrew Haigh's breakout feature: a sexy, raw and tender portrait of a queer romance in its is-this-more-than-a-hookup phase.

"One of the truest, most beautiful movies ever made about two strangers." - Wesley Morris, Boston Globe

"Weekend is finally a deeply romantic film, assured of the pleasure that one person can find in another, but rooted in the quirks and textures of contemporary British life." - Samuel Wigley, Sight and Sound
