Set in Glasgow during the mid '70s binmen strike, Ratcatcher is seen through the eyes of twelve-year-old James Gillespie (William Eadie), a young boy haunted by a secret. Feeling increasingly distant from his family, his only escape comes with the discovery of a new housing development on the outskirts of town where he has the freedom to lose himself in his own world. Enticed by a local gang of older boys, James is thrown together with vulnerable fourteen-year-old Margaret Anne (Leanne Mullen) and the pair strike up an unlikely friendship which becomes their hesitant but touching experience of first love.

Featuring breathtaking imagery, stunningly truthful performances, and a touch of warm humour, Ratcatcher showcases Ramsay as a fully-fledged visionary from the start.

The 6.20pm screening on Tues 23 April will be introduced by filmmaker Alison Millar (Lyra), in partnership with Reclaim The Frame.
