Derek vs Derek
Star & Shadow Cinema, Newcastle Upon Tyne, NE2 1BB
Wednesday 25th November 2026
*Second screening due to popular demand*
Dir. James Dawson, 2026, UK, 88 minutes, Certificate 15
What do you do when your neighbour goes completely wild?
Award-winning director James Dawson’s new documentary is set in the rolling hills of Devon, telling the story of two neighbouring farmers who share the same name but take radically different approaches to land use.
In equal parts hilarious and moving, the film shines a light on the vital debate surrounding the future of rural Britain, encouraging conversation around how farming and nature restoration might work together.
“Hilarious while at the same time being empathetic and incredibly powerful” - Isabella Tree
“Engagingly eccentric crowd-pleaser” - Screen Daily
We are entirely volunteer run but our screenings involve licensing, utilities, equipment and building costs, so our pricing is built on trust and solidarity. Paying what you can helps keep the space open and accessible for everyone, and if you are able to choose a higher tier, it helps others attend who may not otherwise be able to. Please choose the tier you can comfortably afford.
