The Lives of Others – 35mm, Special 50 Anniversary Screening GFT

Thursday 9 May, 2024 7 p.m.

GFT is one of the few Scottish cinemas still equipped to project 35mm and 70mm film. As the perfect showcase for this expertise, audiences can enjoy Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck’s Oscar-winning thriller The Lives of Others on 35mm to mark Europe Day on Thursday 9 May.

In 1984, in East Germany, an agent of the secret police performs surveillance on a writer and his lover. Subsequently, the agent finds himself becoming increasingly interested in their lives. The film’s powerful themes reflect our core belief that film is a vehicle for creating empathy.

Tickets for the anniversary programme of films go on sale at 12pm (noon) on Wednesday 3 April from glasgowfilm.org and the GFT Box Office 0141 332 6535
