Members of a quintessentially British working-class amateur filmmaking club, ‘Bradford Movie Makers’ grow old together amid flickering memories and challenging final years. Clinging to their dreams, and to each other, fuelled by endless cups of tea, this gently comedic, profoundly moving portrait of shared artistic folly speaks to the escapist dreamer in us all and to the enduring power of face-to-face time together, in an increasingly lonely, digital age.

 

A celebratory story of cinema following aging Bradford movie fanatics that is as warm as it is eccentric, and a wonderful balm to the uncertainties of our time.

 

Winner of the Audience Award at DocFest 2022.

Running time: 95 mins, Cert. 12A

 

This screening will be proceeded by a brand new short:

Projectionism (2022, Sarah Wood,12mins)

First we invented the moving-image camera. Then we used the new camera to record the world around us. But it was only when the moving image was finally seen on screen by its very first audience that cinema truly began. Air, speed, the world at 24fps: the modern world was promisingly, thrillingly, on the move. Or that’s what we thought.
