The producer of Chuck Chuck Baby, a new film shot in North Wales, is visiting Wellington Orbit for a Q&A session in August.

Anne Beresford spent Spring 2022 on set in Flint, filming the story of working-class female friendship, love and empowerment set around a chicken factory. The film was released this week to UK Cinemas following a successful round at International Film Festivals.

Music plays a big part in the film featuring songs from Minnie Ripperton, Neil Diamond and more. Director Janis Pugh says “I think music touches us all, doesn’t it? Whenever I approach a script…if I’m not feeling the goosebumps when I’m writing…then they [the audience] are not going to feel it.”

Anne, who grew up in Wellington, has been producing films for TV & Cinema for 30 years, working with independent film makers, BBC, Flim4 amongst others.

Anne said: “I am so pleased to be able to show CHUCK CHUCK BABY in my home town of Wellington. It’s a film of love and loss, music and friendship with great performances from cast including Louise Brealey (Sherlock) and Sorcha Cusack (Mrs Brown’s Boys).”

The Q&A with Anne Beresford will take place after the showing which starts at 7pm on 6th August at Wellington Orbit.

Tickets can be booked here.
