Dunoon Film Festival Picks – an opportunity to see independent and classic films across the year.
Join us for the first of this year’s Dunoon Film Festival Picks screenings at The Studio Cinema Dunoon.
As well as the weekend festival, Dunoon Film Festival Picks will bring an interesting selection of independent films to the Studio Cinema each month across the year. For March 2025 we are delighted to present:
On Falling
Set against a landscape dominated by an algorithm-driven gig economy, in a world designed to keep us apart, On Falling explores the silent, vital struggle to find meaning and connection. It tells the story of Aurora, a Portuguese migrant working as a warehouse picker in Edinburgh, Scotland. Trapped between the confines of a vast distribution centre and the solitude of her own bedroom, Aurora seeks out every opportunity to resist the alienation and isolation that threaten her sense of self.
