Saturday Cinema @ Narromine
Join us at Saturday Cinema for snacks and a screening of Shooting for Socrates, a joyous David and Goliath comedy drama about life, survival and the beautiful game.
Set against the backdrop of the Irish Troubles, nine year old Tommy learns to make sense of the world through his passion for soccer and his philosophy-loving dock worker father. Meanwhile, the tiny nation’s football team, led by grizzled veteran manager, Billy Bingham, beats the odds to reach the World Cup Finals in Mexico – only to find the toughest possible draw will pit them against the Goliath of world football: Brazil, led by the remarkable politician/intellectual/footballing genius Socrates de Souza. Blighted by injuries, Bingham attempts to put together a team of world beaters from ageing pros, rookies and his own David in an attempt to bridge religious divides and inspire a nation – and one young boy – to dare to dream.
