A jolt of adrenaline shot straight to the heart of 1990s British cinema, this darkly funny adaptation of Irvine Welsh’s novel was a major breakthrough for director Danny Boyle. 4K restored and back in cinemas for its 30th anniversary.

With live-wire energy and stylistic verve, Trainspotting bounces across the life and times of Mark Renton (Ewan McGregor), a Scottish heroin addict who, along with his misfit mates, gets high, gets in trouble, gets clean, and gets high again, all in a bid to outrun the banality of modern existence.

Kinetically cut to an iconic soundtrack featuring Iggy Pop, Underworld, Primal Scream, New Order and more, this indie phenomenon chooses life in all its ugly, beautiful, terrifying exhilaration.
