It is with the greatest regret that we have to inform you that we are cancelling the Fundraiser BBQ which was due to be held on Sunday 27th August.
This wasn’t an easy decision to make but we haven’t had as many confirmed bookings as in previous years. We hope you can appreciate that FoB, as a charity, has to manage its funds responsibly and without confirmed bookings a party of that size is likely to make huge losses.
Therefore, on behalf of the committee, I would like to apologise for the cancellation and regret any inconvenience this may cause you.
Friends of Bolivia in collaboration with Deptford Cinema are proud to present the award winning Bolivian Film “El dia que murió el silencio” – The Day Silence Died. A romantic comedy, South American Style with enough magical realism
Handsome entrepreneur Abelardo arrives in the sleepy little town of Villaserena, rigs up speakers throughout the village, and begins broadcasting “Radio Nobleza”. For a small sum of money, the townspeople can now buy the opportunity to express publicly what they couldn’t say before. Villaserena’s closets are quickly emptied of their skeletons, old quarrels are revived and secrets are no longer. Abelardo soon discovers Celeste, a beautiful young woman virtually imprisoned behind the walls of her father’s house, and romance ensues. In Spanish with English subtitles.
