KCL Strand Film Festival

So, now we've announced our FULL programme for next week, here's a big thread breaking down each night, what surprises and treats we have in store for you - and of course, where you can get (FREE!) tickets for each of the events!

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: Due to changing COVID guidelines, unfortunately, the festival is being moved online - we're really sorry about this, and we wish we could continue to host. However, we are currently configuring online set-ups for each of the nights so do not fear!

Happy birthday to Mr. @rizwanahmed! One of the best British actors, so why not celebrate his birthday by coming along to our @SoundOfMetalUK screening next week in collaboration with @VertigoRel? It's completely FREE, and you could win a copy after! eventbrite.co.uk/e/sound-of-met…

Our Marketing Manager Camilla Johnsen is speaking at @KingsCollegeLon for the @KCLStrandFest next Fri 11th December. Watch a couple great short football documentaries and learn about the Girls United journey 🚀

Our Women's Football night, in collaboration with @gurlstalk and @Nike, have @girlsunitedfa's Marketing Strategy Manager Camilla Johnsen to speak with you all - we've also partnered with @im_OHNE to give you some free goodies! eventbrite.co.uk/e/lace-up-impa…

Next up, our Blindness in Cinema night is actually SOLD OUT! The official UK Premiere of Lou Ye's 'Blind Massage' was clearly a hot contender, and we've fully sold out the auditorium. We've also got a pre-recorded greeting from the filmmakers, and an immersive sensory activity!

So, now we've announced our FULL programme for next week, here's a big thread breaking down each night, what surprises and treats we have in store for you - and of course, where you can get (FREE!) tickets for each of the events!

Finally, our Free Will: The Future of the Cinematic Experience night takes inspiration from @charltonbrooker and @NetflixUK's Black Mirror, with a special Choose-Your-Own-Adventure programme of mysterious short films for you to dive into and explore. eventbrite.co.uk/e/free-will-th…

Here's the schedule! 6:30 pm: Doors Open 7:00 pm: A pre-recorded intro from a special guest speaker! 7:10pm: Screening of Spit Fire, Dream Higher & We All Rise 8:00pm - Screening ends

@charltonbrooker what do you think of our programme plan? We'd love it to know your thoughts, or even if you could share it!

We hope you can make it for our final night, it's sure to be an experimental exploration of the cinematic experience you WON'T forget. You can get your tickets here: eventbrite.co.uk/e/free-will-th…

Our final night is a Black Mirror-inspired Choose-Your-Own-Adventure short film programme! Taking influence from Bandersnatch, our team have stitched a number of films together to give YOU the choice of where you go, who you follow, and what ending you can get.

So, SOMEHOW, we've been forgetting to actually publish the link so you can get your tickets to these amazing events, so here it is: eventbrite.co.uk/cc/kcl-strand-… It'll also be in our bio from now on! 😭😭

We'll also be hosting a Q&A discussion from the stellar Afro-Caribbean Society, known for their campaigns for progressive change and exposing racial inequalities across King's College London - we couldn't think of anyone better to head our evening.

For our Farming and the Race Relations Act night, we'll be screening @adewale's raw, honest childhood portrait of growing up in 1960s Britain. It's an emotionally complex exploration of British-Nigerian identity, and questions how far this nation has truly come.
