Nithraid is an annual boat race and festival. Competitors race small boats up the River Nith to Mill Green on the high tide. We are delighted to be involved in this year’s events with a free film screening at the RBC.
RIVERWOODS, narrated by Peter Capaldi, is a documentary which explores the complex relationship between Scotland’s Atlantic salmon and its natural woodlands.
Three years in the making, the feature-length Riverwoods film, produced by SBP, shines a light on the perilous state of Scotland’s salmon, and tells the compelling story of a fish that once lived in the forest. And in the soil that feeds the forest. And in the predators, scavengers and even herbivores of the forest. Scotland’s Atlantic salmon - the King of Fish - is not only the ultimate angler’s prize, but a key building block in a complex forest ecosystem.

On Resistance Street (N/C 15+)
ON RESISTANCE STREET is a feature length documentary examining the role music plays in the fight against Fascism, racism and bigotry. The film was shot over a two year period in England, Belfast and New York and features contributions from many renowned musicians, bands, writers and commentators. These include original members of STEEL PULSE, THE SEX PISTOLS, ASWAD, STIFF LITTLE FINGERS, THE LEVELLERS, THE MEN THEY COULDN’T HANG, and others.
ON RESISTANCE STREET looks at the impact the 1970s ‘Rock Against Racism’ movement had on a whole generation of young people and the radical bands, solo artists and political activists who were inspired by it.
The film also explores the almost forgotten formation of ‘The Stars Campaign for Inter-racial Friendship’ by a group of famous British Jazz musicians and pop artists, in the wake of the 1958 Notting Hill riots. ORS tells the story of the organisation for the first time via film.
In addition, ORS charts the 21st century political drift to the Right in the contemporary West and dissects the influence of Far Right extremist groups and individuals on Donald Trump’s ascension in America, Brexit and the recent Conservative government in Britain.

What Remains (15)
During the 1990s, at a Scandinavian psychiatric hospital, a man known as Mads Lake confessed to multiple murders and was convicted. However, the uneasy triumvirate of Mads, therapist Anna Rudebeck and policeman Soren Rank, all have a vested interest in unearthing the truth, and a deepening co-dependency threatens to consume them all.

Thelma (12A)
Inspired by a real-life experience of director Josh Margolin's own grandmother, Thelma puts a clever spin on movies like Mission: Impossible, shining the spotlight on an elderly grandmother as an unlikely action hero.

In the first leading film role of her 70-year career, June Squibb portrays the strong-willed Thelma with grit and determination, demonstrating that she is more than capable of taking care of business -- despite what her daughter Gail, son-in-law Alan, or grandson Danny might believe.
