RhubarbRhubarb

So excited to be at Clermont Ferrand Film Festival on Monday night and hear the 1400 strong cinema audience respond so well to Kate McMullen's film ‘RhubarbRhubarb’, one of 64 titles to be part of the International Selection, from 8,000 submissions.

Variety had this to say.

'Speaking with?Variety, a number of Clermont-Ferrand programmers pointed toward Kate McMullen’s “Rhubarb Rhubarb” as a standout title – one encompassing many of this year’s trends

Awash in candlelight chiaroscuro and punctuated with witty repartee, the film initially seems like a quirky comedy about a father and daughter struggling with their rhubarb farm. Only that genteel veneer soon gives way to a more scathing national x-ray, satirising post-Brexit malaise alongside broader issues of immigration and national identity.’
