Four female temps who are perpetually bored and dissatisfied at their office jobs form friendships in this subversive cult comedy.

With an iconic cast featuring Toni Collette, Parker Posey, Lisa Kudrow and Alanna Ubach, Clockwatchers effectively portrays the crushing mundanity of corporate work, while remaining incredibly funny, and showcasing some snazzy 90s outfits. An underseen gem, the film is still laughably relevant.

Film critic Roger Ebert wrote that Clockwatchers is “a film about the way people actually live… the kind of movie that can change lives”. So get into your office attire (optional!) and come to this rare screening.

Each ticket also includes a lovingly crafted zine with writing on the films and themes of the season. Presented in association with the National Film and Television School. Check out @fruitsofherlabour.films on Instagram for further info!
