Creative Connection from Through A Different Lens

We love film and we love to bring people together. We host film screening events with a focus on underrepresented stories and talent. Our experience includes running film festivals, working on film sets, developing films and outreach and engagement for the creative industries. We believe in great communication, creating immersive experiences and helping everyone to connect with stories and each other.
We will always champion and showcase diversity on screen and behind the camera to as wide and diverse an audience as possible, showcasing storytelling from filmmakers and creatives.
We are an open and inclusive space so even if you are not a creative but just want to watch films you will be welcome. We'll be showing some short films with plenty of time to mingle and chat in the foyer afterwards.

We have some incredible films lined up along with Q+A discussion with the filmmakers. Visit @throughadifferentlensuk on Instagram to see the upcoming films plus panel guests.

Info: Please arrive with plenty of time to check in with the Through A Different Lens to be directed to the cinema screen. There is a bar at the venue with plenty of helpful staff (drinks not provided by us unless stated).

Info: We will start the screenings on time so please take your seats. The screening of the films will be followed by a Q+A with the filmmaking talent - subject to availability to attend the screening. Once the screening is completed we'll head back into the foyer to chat, catch up and share. There is no pressure to stay but at most event people stick around and bond - all over film!
