So grab your picnic baskets, blankets, outdoor gear and chairs and come and enjoy the magic of the movies at an outdoor summer experience near.

Join them on the lawn of An Cuan YWAM as Rostrevor Aurora Community Cinema host an outdoor screening of a beautiful and quietly captivating adaptation of John McGahern novel ‘That They May Face The Rising Sun‘

That They May Face The Rising Sun

This poignant, rural meditation on life, love & friendship is based on the bestselling novel by John McGahern, and is a steadfast adaptation that finds beauty in the mundane, as is the case with the original text.

Joe and his wife Kate have quit the London life to return to the rolling Irish landscape of his childhood (filmed in stunning Connemara), and soon enough their quirky “London ways” & boho stylings are the talk of the local community, who flock to view these exotic new residents.

A simple, yet powerful tale of love on the move, of community, and of friendships through adversity. A quiet giant that stays with the soul.
