Cinema on Tuesday

A reminder that Ama Gloria is the final film in the Brigid Film Season 2025, showing at Kilcullen Bridge Cinema TONIGHT Tuesday February 25th, writes Teresa Nurse. It is a tender and vibrant drama about 6-year-old Cléo who lives in Paris with her father and her beloved nanny, Gloria, who is her primary carer. When Gloria has to leave — returning to Cape Verde permanently to care for her own children, following her mother’s death — she invites Cléo to visit.

There, Cléo discovers not only a different culture but that Gloria has her own family and that the world — especially Gloria’s world — does not revolve around Cléo. It’s a harsh lesson and one that both of them have to face as the consequences of their changed dynamic plays out. A low key movie that gently touches on Gloria’s immigration story. 

Tickets are €7 and are available in Woodbine Books Kilcullen and on Eventbrite.
