The Truth has a Man on the Inside
In 1998, Robert Bilott (Mark Ruffalo) is a corporate defence attorney in Cincinnati, Ohio. One day at the office, farmer Wilbur Tennant (Bill Camp), an acquaintance of Robert’s grandmother, arrives with boxes of videotapes, requesting Robert’s assistance. Robert doesn’t have time for him, but later drives out to his home town of Parkersburg, West Virginia, to see his grandmother and then Wilbur. Wilbur shows him evidence – from video tapes he’s made to remaining cow parts – of how all 190 of his cows have died, showing signs of bizarre and strange disease. He knows it has to do with the huge company DuPont, who has a plant in town, since his brother had been working for them disposing of waste.
Robert asks his boss, Tom Terp (Tim Robbins) if he can take the case, assuring him it will be a small side project. Tom reluctantly agrees.
Starring: Mark Ruffalo, Tim Robbins, Ann Hathaway, Bill Pullman
Watch the trailer
Hayne’s ‘Dark Waters’ is an unsettling, slow-drip legal thriller about large companies and the people who become its collateral damage……it is absolutely real and intricately crafted to show the conspiracies ongoing among these big organizations.
Mark Ruffalo plays the character of a corporate defence attorney who switched side to fight for the people who are the victims of poisoning caused by the company………and he had done a sensational job just like Foxcatcher.

Latest Covid guidance
While we are grateful that we can begin to operate in a more normal way, we are mindful that throughout the pandemic we have said that we will always put the wellbeing of our community first. We will continue to do so and we have decided, therefore, that for the time being we should keep some distancing practices in place.
In line with Government regulations introduced on the 10th December 2021 we ask that you continue to wear a face covering (unless exempt) when visiting the Goods Shed – this can be removed for the purposes of eating and drinking only – and to be conscious of social distancing in general. This will be harder for us financially but we think it is the right thing to do. We are open (performances, café and for other groups) as we have been whenever possible in this challenging period. We hope you understand, and that we can relax more fully in a couple of months.
Your support of us throughout this period has been humbling and we will do all we can to make your visits to the Goods Shed and café both comfortable and exciting.
