The Salt Path

Coast Path – a 630-mile trek stretching from Minehead in  Somerset through north Devon, Cornwall and south Devon  to Poole in Dorset – in search of a different view.

Gillian Anderson and Jason Isaacs star in Tony Award winning theatre director Marianne Elliott’s film debut as Raynor and Moth Winn, the couple who decided to travel the south west’s famously gorgeous rugged coastline after a combination of crises in their lives, as captured in Raynor’s prize-winning memoir of the same name.

Though emotionally and physically challenging, the journey also  proves exhilarating and liberating, giving Raynor and Moth a renewed vitality and a deeper connection to both  the natural world and each other. Featuring understated performances from Anderson and Isaacs and immersive cinematography and sound design, The Salt Path is an affecting, rewarding portrait of mid-life loss and rebirth.

About our Autism-friendly ‘relaxed’ screenings:

An Autism-friendly screening is where people can watch a film in a relaxed environment.

They are different from regular film screenings because:

• the lights are low instead of completely off, so you can still see where you’re going
• the volume is a little lower than a standard screening
• you can move around the cinema freely as you wish during the screening
• you can leave the cinema room during the screening and return without having to worry
• you can make noise, stim, and enjoy yourself
• there is a friendly atmosphere
• there are people around if you need any help

These screenings are for anyone who would feel safe and welcome in this environment.

At Electric Palace, we think the cinema should be for everyone, that’s why we offer Autism-friendly screenings.
