Black History Month

This Black History Month we are celebrating some of the greatest contributions from Black filmmakers and creatives to British cinema. From the first Black dramatic feature length film in Horace OvĂ©'s Pressure through to Dionne Edwards' 2022 exploration of family, gender and self-expression in Pretty Red Dress, these five films span the history of Black British filmmaking and cross genres from drama to experimental to documentary.

Book tickets for two or more of our Black History Month films to receive a discount! Tickets can also be bought separately.
