The Last Blossom

Lonely prisoner and former yakuza member Minoru talks to his sole companion, a potted hosenka (balsam), about his past and the meaning of life. Betrayed and manipulated from a young age, he still clings to one thing — the hope of turning his life around — in this tender anime.


Screening as part of The Japan Foundation Touring Programme


Building Closure on Tue 6th January | Lift Out of Action

Please Note that our Lift is currently out of order due to a technical issue. Our Box Office, Bar Café and Vicolo all have step-free access, but access to all screens requires the use of stairs. We are working to rectify this issue as quickly as possible, and appreciate your patience and understanding. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused.

Please note that Tyneside Cinema, Bar Café and Vicolo will be closed all day on Tuesday 6th of January for Team Training.
