Chef Primo and businessman Secondo are immigrant brothers from Italy who open their dream restaurant, Paradise, in New Jersey. However, Primo’s authentic food is too unfamiliar for the local tastes, and the restaurant is struggling. When famous Italian-American bandleader Louis Prima is scheduled to appear at Paradise, the two brothers put all of their efforts into the important meal, which will likely decide the fate of their restaurant.
Big Night is part of the Purl + Seam strand. Doors open at 9.30am, for a 10am start. The lights will left on low as we invite you to bring any sewing/knitting/crochet/stitching style craft projects with you to work on. Relaxed enough to share the laughs. This strand is in collaboration with Spinning Wheal, with textile artist and teacher Ellie Murray staying on after the film for you to continue the chat / stitching / film natters in the Oak Room bar.
