Next date: Tuesday, 13 January 2026 | 10:30 AM to 12:30 PM

Enjoy good company, morning tea and great movies!

We’re hosting free movie screenings for older Corangamite residents each month.

Join us for a free screening of Buckley’s Chance on Tuesday 13 January from 10.30 am to 12.30 pm at Timboon & District Public Hall as part of Corangamite Shire’s Active Seniors Program.

SYNOPSIS: A year after the loss of his father, Ridley and his mother, Gloria, move to Western Australian to live with Ridley's estranged grandfather Spencer. Once there Spencer tries to connect with Ridley but all efforts usually lead to conflict. Ridley ends up lost deep in the outback on a quest to try to get home. Meanwhile, Spencer and Gloria search the outback for Ridley. Spencer tries to reassure Gloria that her son will be OK, all the while trying to come to terms with the loss of his only child. While suffering the elements of the Australian outback (especially for a kid from New York), Ridley manages to save a dingo, Buckley, from a leg trap. The two develop a bond and both boy and dog try to survive the elements to get Ridley back home.

Free entry for senior residents, with popcorn and ice-cream to complete the old-fashioned cinema experience.

Whether you come with friends or solo, it's a fantastic way to meet new people and have a fun day out!

Bookings are essential, so please call 5593 7100 and ask for Belinda or Lesa.
