Hull Independent Cinema presents
Still Pushing Pineapples (12A) + Live Q&A
Director: Kim Hopkins | 2025 | 12A
Former pop star Dene Michael clings to the remnants of fame he once had as a member of 1980s novelty pop group Black Lace.
Now, performing for a dwindling audience in some of the UK’s most deprived seaside towns, he’s eager to press on with his music career and get out from under the legacy of Agadoo.
Follow Dene, his spirited 89-year-old mum Anne, and his sassy girlfriend Hayley across Britain and the Costa del Sol in this unmistakably British road movie. En route they navigate love, family duty, and the relentless pursuit of one last chart success.
The film will be followed by a live Q&A with director Kim Hopkins and producer Margareta Szabo.
