An inspiring real-life love story starring
Andrew Garfield and Claire Foy... A downtrodden woman refuses to give
up on her dream of becoming a rap star!

“I don’t want to just survive. I want
to truly live...” In the mood for some
heartbreaking romance? Then might
we suggest this superb biographical drama.
The debut film of Andy Serkis (in a directing
capacity at least, his acting highlights include
some of the biggest movies ever), Breathe is
based on the true story of Robin Cavendish
(Andrew Garfield), a good-looking adventurer
whose life is turned upside down when he
contracts polio. Rendered paralysed, Robin
draws courage from his devoted wife Diana
(Claire Foy), who gives him reason to carry on.
Trust us when we say you’ll cry. A festival favourite (and rightly so),
this gritty, aspirational drama tells
the story of would-be rapper Patricia
Dombrowski (AKA Patti Cake$, AKA Killa P).
Life hasn’t been especially kind to Patti (a
charismatic Danielle Macdonald), but that
hasn’t stopped her dreaming. What she wants
more than anything is to become a legendary
rapper, and she’s got the talent to do it – she
just needs someone to give her a shot.
Described as “one of the year’s most endearing
discoveries” by Variety, this is soul-stirring,
fist-pumping, toe-tapping stuff. You’ll walk
out of the cinema grinning from ear to ear!
