Screening as part of our First Tuesdays strand, where we share a bangin' rockumentary, plus the bar will be open and the drinks will be flowing! Each event is in collaboration with a local business, musician or artist.

This screening is in partnership with psych-noir band, Column 258 who will introduce and play live before the screening.

Cult icon, enigma, recluse... the life of Syd Barrett, founding member of Pink Floyd, is full of unanswered questions. Until now.

Piecing together his comet-like rise to pop stardom, his creative and destructive impulses, breakdown, exit from the band and subsequent life alone, this feature length documentary is set against the social context of the explosive sixties.

Directed by Storm Thorgerson (Hipgnosis) and award-winning director Roddy Bogawa, it features new interviews with Syd’s friends, lovers, family and band mates Roger Waters, David Gilmour, and Nick Mason.
