Shropshire Independent Cinema is a partnership founded in 2025 to curate fun and inspiring film-led events for our local communities and culturally curious visitors. Ludlow Assembly Rooms, Old Market Hall, Wem Town Hall and Wellington Orbit work with each other, local artists, young people and our partners to hand-pick films and events that express the historically independent spirit of our region. The Rural Remix, 11-13 July, is our first joint creation, showcasing our take on rural life and landscape on screen.
A New Kind of Wilderness is a deeply moving exploration of a family that seeks freedom in the heart of nature, only to be forced to navigate the complexities of modern society when tragedy strikes.
On a small farm in the Norwegian forest, Maria, Nik, and their four children—Ulv, Falk, Freja, and Ronja—live a self-sufficient, closely-knit life, embracing home-schooling and a bond with nature. But when an unexpected loss disrupts their idyllic existence, they must find a new path forward, facing the challenges of the world beyond their secluded paradise.
