Vegan Edinburgh trip to an Edinburgh Film Festival showing at the newly restored Edinburgh Filmhouse. The film is called: Once You Shall be One of those who Lived Long Ago.
There is a lovely bar at Filmhouse we can gather in afterwards for drinks, snacks, reflections.
As EFF describe: An affecting, gorgeously crafted documentary about the remaining people in Malmberget in north Sweden, a small town slowly collapsing into the mines beneath it. As residents reflect on the once vibrant community, the town itself is gradually dismantled around them.
Beautifully shot, with a dreamy, otherworldly sense of place and time, and featuring warm, interesting characters whose stoicism is accompanied by a deeper sadness. Haunting, reflective and deeply cinematic, this is a dignified and thoughtful rumination on change, loss and grief alongside the strength of community and the resilience of the natural world.More info and tickets here:
https://www.edfilmfest.org/film/once-you-shall-be-one-of-those-who-lived-long-ago/Please note the film is in Swedish with English subtitles and lasts 95 minutes. It is unclear from the website how many tickets remain, the film festival is popular so I would suggest booking a ticket once you plan to come. There are four showings, please check yours is Aug 17, 2025 at 16:15 @ Filmhouse.
