The riotous inside story of the infamous sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll repertory cinema which inspired a generationAbout this Event
We're delighted to be joining forces with Stow Film Lounge to present a very special cinema and discussion event at Walthamstow Trades Hall.
Scala!!! is the feature-length big screen documentary tells the riotous inside story of the infamous sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll repertory cinema which inspired a generation.
In Britain’s post-punk Thatcher years, the infamous and legendary Scala cinema showed a diverse range of films, from high art to cult classics, sexploitation, horror, Kung-Fu and LGBTQIA+. Nudging boundaries of convention, it became an inspiration for future famous creatives. With interviews from nearly 50 contributors, previously unseen archive footage and film clips, Scala!!! is an anarchic, uproarious documentary telling the riotous inside story of the cinema, with an original soundtrack by celebrated musician and Walthamstow Rock 'n' Roll Book Club guest Barry Adamson.
