Independent visions

Discover new cult favourites and enjoy underground hits in our latest strand.

Our new film strand, Independent Visions, celebrates the lo-fi, experimental and cult. 

Working in partnership with Brighton-based film distributors, Bulldog and starting properly in January, expect monthly screenings showcasing new must-sees as well as recent greats and underground hits you may have missed.

Each film screening will be hosted by Philip Hoile, Head of Distribution & Acquisitions at Bulldog, charismatic cinephile and independent film expert, and will include on-stage or Zoom intros and interviews with the contemporary filmmakers destined to become the indie auteurs of the future. Plus attendees have the chance of getting their hands on free merch and posters!
