Helen (Louise Brealey) is in her late 30s and spends her nights packing chickens and her days caring for dying mother-figure Gwen (Sorcha Cusack). She lives in a small room in the house her clingy ex-husband (Celyn Jones) shares with his dim-witted girlfriend (Emily Fairn) and their new baby. Helen’s world takes an unexpected turn with the return of Joanne (Annabel Scholey), an object of unspoken teenage passion twenty years before. One night, encouraged by Helen, Joanne starts a playful wooing game that re-awakens their youthful feelings and gives Helen a renewed zest for life.

Blending magical realism with comedy and musical numbers, Chuck Chuck Baby will have you crying, laughing, singing, and crying a little bit more.

Baby Pictures 

Baby Pictures is open to carers and little ones of twelve months and under. As everyone in the cinema is a parent or carer, there’s no need to worry if it gets a little noisy. Everyone understands. Customers not accompanying a baby will be turned away.

The lights are turned up a little bit and the sound is a little softer to create a peaceful environment for you and the baby. It’s just for carers (Mum, Dad, Granny, Granda, whoever it is it looking after the tot) and babies. Up to two adults can come with a baby. Please note: we cannot allow babies over the age of 12 months to come to Baby Pictures.  

If you have any questions about Baby Pictures, please get in touch on qftmanager@qub.ac.uk.

Baby Pictures is supported by Film Hub NI.
