The Salt Path” (Cert 12A) 

Based on the controversial memoir by Raynor Winn, this is the story of how she and her ailing husband Moth (played by Gillian Anderson and Jason Isaacs) set out on a 630-mile trek along the Cornish, Devon and Dorset coastline. After being evicted from their home, they make the desperate decision to walk in the hope that, in nature, they will find solace and a sense of acceptance. With depleted resources, only a tent and some essentials between them, every step along the path is a testament to their growing strength and determination.

THE SALT PATH is a journey that is exhilarating, challenging, and liberating in equal measure. A portrayal of home, how it can be lost and rediscovered in the most unexpected ways.

“The Penguin Lessons” (Cert 12A)

Inspired by the true story of a disillusioned Englishman Tom Michell (Steve Coogan) gets a job teaching English and Rugby in a school for unteachable rich kids in Buenos Aires. It’s 1976 and Argentina is a divided nation controlled by a military dictatorship, but Tom is more interested in spending time on the beach than in either his pupils or the political situation. During a weekend trip to Uruguay he rescues an orphaned penguin from an oil slicked beach and smuggles it back into the school, little suspecting that this is the beginning of a personal and political awakening.

The Penguin Lessons is appealing even if it curiously elides some disturbing geopolitical history, and is elevated by a winning performance from Steve Coogan with a little help from a lovable pint-sized companion.
