Delighted that The Bean Shop coffee will be served at the beginning of all Perth Film society screenings!
Were super excited! It's just a week to go now until our Autumn 2026 Season starts!
First up we'll be screening In the Nguyen Kitchen at 7:45pm on Thursday 3 September in our usual home of the Joan Knight Studio, Perth Theatre. We'd love to see you there.
Were also over the moon that the Theatre Cafe will now be serving coffee from our fab sponsor The Bean Shop! And that includes your freebie from PFS, so our tickets will be even better value than before! They are on sale now from the Perth Theatre and Concert Hall box office - get them before the coffee cools!
In the Nguyen Kitchen is a debut feature by the Franco-Vietnamese director Stéphane Ly-Cuong. Released in 2025, it is a magical, joyous comedy that balances fantastical musical numbers with a story about the harsh reality of being different. Themes of identity, rootlessness, and belonging all surround the serious personal drama at its heart. But the real star of the film is its setting. Clanking utensils and sizzling woks harmonise against an underlying cacophony of self-doubt and societal prejudices. The sanctuary of the Nguyen kitchen represents belonging and connection with family, history, heritage and home.
