but not much else. Be it chance or fate, these two
houses are brought together and the Kims sense
a golden opportunity. Masterminded by college-

Soon, a symbiotic relationship forms between the
two families. The Kims provide “indispensable”

their entire household. When a parasitic interloper
threatens the Kims’ newfound comfort, a savage, underhanded battle for dominance breaks out,
threatening to destroy the fragile ecosystem between the Kims and the Parks.

THE BIRKS CINEMA TRUST IS LOOKING…
For a Vice Chair and Trustee of the Board
&
For Trustees to join our Board
Both roles are voluntary and provide a brilliant opportunity to give
something back to the Highland Perthshire community. Trustees
require a commitment to the Birks Cinema and will want to share
our vision to deliver a sustainable social enterprise.
The Trustee will have an ability to think strategically, demonstrate
good judgement, and be keen to work as part of a team. Board
meetings are held on a monthly basis. We are especially keen to
talk to anyone with finance, communication and marketing, and IT,
skills.
As part of our vision, we will appoint a key role, Vice Chair. The
Vice Chair can act in place of the Chair, and support or share some
responsibilities with the Chair. We see this as a really important role,
helping drive us to the next level of change in the organisation.
In return, we can offer a brilliant opportunity to help take the Birks
Cinema to the next stage of its journey. We have come a long way
in six years, and want to go further still as we move into the next
phase of our development.Book online www.birkscinema.co.uk | Telephone: 01887 822845
