We are back!

With a brand new format. We are teaming up with Longthrow Radio to programme some feature films in Bristol and first off we are screening LEAVING LAS VEGAS (1995). A surprisingly brutal romantic comedy starring Elisabeth Shue and Nicolas Cage, which we think marks a strange golden era of 90’s odd ball Hollywood success.

We will also be screening a great short film called BLIGHTY. A darkly comedic short made with a single roll of 16mm, starring Bruce Jones. Made by Bristol Filmmaker Theo Watkins.

This is a collaboration with Bristol Community Radio Station Longthrow Radio and The Brunswick Club, funded by the West of England Visual Arts Fund.
