Everyone’s exposed. Everyone wants revenge. No one’s talking about it. Five candid stories about image-based sexual abuse and all its many victims.

| | Sunday | |  | |  | | | TRY: | | WATCH: | | Tratra at the Boundary | | Manhattan at the BFI | | | #UJLoves a sunny evening spent on the rooftop with a cocktail, and now we’ve got a new reason to do it. Meaning ‘traditional with a twist’, Tratra is the Boundary’s new opening from Stéphane Reynaud (Ripailles, Pork & Sons & Terrine) – his first outside Paris. It’s a chic basement haunt with a meat-focused menu, and the clue is in the name; think French classics with a modern spin.
| | Woody Allen’s classic comedy Manhattan is one that needs to be seen on the big screen – and this weekend is your chance as the BFI are showing it throughout May. Darkly comical and visually stunning, it’s one of Allen’s finest and the perfect Sunday movie.
| | | | Open now,
2-4 Boundary Street,
E2 7DD
| | Times vary,
Belvedere Rd,
South Bank,
SE1 8XT
