Be one of the first to witness Oscar winner Olivia Colman and Oscar nominee John Lithgow in the uplifting family drama Jimpa at our Golden Club Preview!
From acclaimed Australian director Sophie Hyde (Good Luck to You, Leo Grande), Jimpa is a moving multi-generational family story featuring a stellar cast led by Olivia Colman, John Lithgow and Hyde’s child Aud Mason-Hyde.
Hannah (Colman) travels to vibrant Amsterdam with her non-binary teenager, Frances (Mason-Hyde), to reconnect with her politically-engaged, gay father—affectionately known as “Jimpa” (Lithgow). Frances is besotted with Jimpa and announces they wish to stay with him for a year – to Hannah’s apprehension.
Jimpa is fiercely independent, so it is a shock when his declining health is revealed, upending Frances' plans and bringing Hannah’s sister in from the UK. As the siblings negotiate what happens next, Hannah must confront her past and the stories she has told about her family.
With warmth, humour and joy, Jimpa reminds us that family stories are never as simple as they seem.
