The UK premiere of Jolly, followed by a Death Cafe with tea and cake.
Film screening | 1.30pm
Death Cafe Bristol is delighted to present the UK premiere of Jolly (2026), a short film by Ebba Stoppelenburg, shown in Swedish with English subtitles.
Doors open at 1.20pm, with the screening beginning at 1.30pm.
“For generations, my family has had a human skull at home. In Jolly, we journey through historical, ethical, scientific and spiritual perspectives in an attempt to understand who this individual was and how we should properly care for their remains.”
Death Cafe | 2pm–4pm
Following the film, join us for a Death Cafe: an open, welcoming space to share thoughts, ideas and perspectives on death, while enjoying tea and cake.
A melting pot of perspectives, the Death Cafe offers an opportunity to reflect, share and listen, with no set agenda or expectations. Conversations might touch on our own mortality, burial traditions around the world, historical funeral rites, or religious and non-religious perspectives on death.
Everyone is welcome. Come along, share your thoughts, listen to others, or simply enjoy being part of the conversation.
Entry is on a donation basis. To find out more visit www.deathcafe.com or email mtutaev@icloud.com with enquiries.
Next death cafe is on Sunday 20 December
