Our Page to Screen series celebrates Valentine’s Day with Picnic at Hanging Rock, Peter Weir’s penetrating 1975 mystery! Now in a brand new 4K restoration for its 50th anniversary!

In the early 1900s, Miranda attends a girls boarding school in Australia. One Valentine’s Day, the school’s typically strict headmistress treats the girls to a picnic field trip to an unusual but scenic volcanic formation called Hanging Rock. Despite rules against it, Miranda and several other girls venture off. It’s not until the end of the day that the faculty realizes the girls and one of the teachers have disappeared mysteriously.

After the film, stick around for a discussion about the film and book it’s based on with our Staff Writer/Editor Reggie Peralta and our friends from Arvida Book Co!
