QFilm is a group for LGBTQIA film-lovers that has been running in Northampton since 2014 (and is now run under the QStory umbrella). We meet up once or twice a month to watch queer-themed films at the Northampton Filmhouse then move on to a nearby venue to discuss what we thought of it. All are welcome to join us.

You will need to buy your film ticket directly from the filmhouse which you can do here:

More about The Wedding Banquet

Director: Andrew Ahn

Starring: Bowen Yang, Lily Gladstone, Kelly Marie Tran, Gi-chan, Joan Chen, Youn Yuh-jung

From Director Andrew Ahn comes a joyful comedy of errors about a chosen family navigating the disasters and delights of family expectations, queerness, and cultural identity. Angela and her partner Lee have been unlucky with their IVF treatments, but can’t afford to pay for another round. Meanwhile, their friend Min, the closeted scion of a multinational corporate empire, has plenty of family money but a soon-to-expire student visa. When his commitment-phobic boyfriend Chris rejects his proposal, Min makes the offer to Angela instead: a green card marriage in exchange for funding Lee’s IVF. But their plans to quietly elope are upended when Min’s sceptical grandmother flies in from Korea unannounced, insisting on an all-out wedding extravaganza.
The Wedding Banquet is a fresh reimagining of **Ang Lee’**s beloved, Award-winning rom-com teems with humour and heart in a poignant reminder that being part of a family means learning to both accept and forgive.
