“Lonnie Hawkins,2004’s number one golfer, struggles on the back nine of his career to recapture his magic. His body says retire, but his heart says he’s not done yet. His ex-wife and his son Lance, golf’s new golden boy, know he’s through.

Three childhood friends from Boston, Jimmy, Sean, and Dave, are reunited decades later by a horrific tragedy: the brutal murder of Jimmy’s teenage daughter. Sean, now a detective, is assigned to the case, while the devastated Jimmy seeks his own street justice. As the investigation deepens, suspicion falls heavily on Dave, whose fragile psyche is still haunted by a childhood trauma.

With Nolan’s latest film The Odyssey, now in cinemas, it comes as no surprise that another film from the director’s filmography has been added to the UK library. One of the most divisive films of his career, Tenet is certainly worth multiple watches to get your head around the concept.

A nameless CIA operative known as the Protagonist is recruited into a secret global organization. Tasked with preventing World War III, he must master “time inversion,” a technology that allows objects and people to move backward through time. Guided by fellow operative Neil, the Protagonist tracks a ruthless Russian oligarch who is weaponizing this technology from the future. To save the world from total annihilation, he must navigate a complex, non-linear reality in which cause and effect collide, culminating in a spectacular, time-based battle against the clock.
