DOGSH*T BEAUTIFUL at The Backroom, Shredenhams
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Homespun cinema from the Bristol-and-beyond DIY universe! Dogshit Beautiful’s evening of independent shorts spans silver screen montage, boundary-bending body horrors, avian-humanoid hybrids and absurdist clowning japes – screening after some good old cochlea-mangling warm-up shred from Skeletal Fragrance and Hitmarka."
