SUMMARY:SFW22: Neptune Frost
DESCRIPTION:Neptune Frost (2021)\nSaturday 19 November 2022 at 7:00pm\nDir. Saul Williams\, Anisia Uzeyman | USA/Rwanda | 1hr 45m | 15| Sci-fi | English subtitles  \nAn intersex African hacker\, a coltan miner and the virtual marvel born as a result of their union.  \nAfro-futurist fantasia Neptune Frost\, is a wondrous\, thrilling sci-fi punk musical from multi-hyphenate\, multidisciplinary artists Saul Williams and Anisia Uzeyman who bring their unique dynamism to the vision of Neptune Frost. It is a sci-fi-punk musical that’s a visually wondrous amalgamation of themes\, ideas\, and songs that they have been exploring in their work\, including on Williams’ 2016 album MartyrLoserKing.  \n \nNeptune Frost takes place in the hilltops of Burundi\, where a group of escaped coltan miners camp in an otherworldly e-waste dump\, they attempt a takeover of the authoritarian regime exploiting the region’s natural resources and its people. When an intersex runaway and an escaped miner find each other through cosmic forces\, their connection sparks glitches within the greater divine circuitry.  \nSet between states of being – past and present\, dream and waking life\, colonised and free\, male and female\, memory and prescience – Neptune Frost is an invigorating and empowering direct download to the cerebral cortex and a call to reclaim technology for progressive political ends.  \n“In a word: Mesmerising. Neptune Frost is truly cinema in poetry\, a visually (and aurally) stunning work of art that feels like it should be on display in a museum.” – feedback from young audience members  \n\nOne of the most unique sci-fi films of recent years\, Neptune Frost is screening at MAST Mayflower Studios on Saturday 19 November. \nThis performance will be relaxed. There is a relaxed attitude to noise and movement\, and a chillout space will be available before\, during and after the show for anyone that needs a quiet space.  \n is run by film charity      Charity Number 1089882

SUMMARY:SFW22: All That Breathes
DESCRIPTION:All That Breathes (2021)\nSaturday 19 November 2022 at 3:00pm\nDir. Shaunak Sen | India | 1hr 31m |12A | Documentary | English subtitles  \nAgainst the darkening backdrop of Delhi’s apocalyptic air and escalating violence\, two brothers devote their lives to protect a casualty of the turbulent times: the bird known as the Black Kite.  \n \nIn one of the world’s most populated cities\, two brothers — Nadeem and Saud — devote their lives to the quixotic effort of protecting the black kite\, a majestic bird of prey essential to the ecosystem of New Delhi that has been falling from the sky at alarming rates. Amid environmental toxicity and social unrest\, the ‘kite brothers’ spend day and night caring for the creatures in their makeshift avian basement hospital. Director Shaunak Sen (Cities of Sleep) explores the connection between the kites and the Muslim brothers who help them return to the skies\, offering a mesmerizing chronicle of inter-species coexistence.  \nNadeem and Saud live in a working-class\, predominantly Muslim neighbourhood running their soap dispenser business. Their passion\, however\, is their budding organisation ‘Wildlife Rescue’ and its work to save black kites injured in mid-air collisions caused by the city’s terrifyingly poor air quality and opaque skies. Lobbying for donations while lovingly tending to these majestic birds of prey\, Nadeem and Saud are a two-man band intervening to make change. All the while city life is dominated by pollution\, overpopulation and climate change\, and violent protests against India’s anti-Muslim Citizen Act.  \nEverything is connected in Sen’s dreamy and impressionistic film which provokes thinking around the intersections of the climate and environmental crises – and the people they most affect. This prescient and remarkable documentary explores the relationship between humanity and the natural world\, and the value of individual actions against monumental systemic problems.  \n\nWatch All That Breathes at MAST on Saturday 19 November as part of Southampton Film Week\, tickets available through the MAST Box Office. \nThis performance will be relaxed. There is a relaxed attitude to noise and movement\, and a chillout space will be available before\, during and after the show for anyone that needs a quiet space.  \n is run by film charity      Charity Number 1089882

DESCRIPTION:Intro to Filmmaking Workshop\n12pm – 3pm Saturday 19 November\nCity Eye\n  \nThis 3-hour workshop is perfect for aspiring filmmakers and photographers\, as well as beginners with some experience looking to build their skills in a fun and practical manner. Participants with their own cameras are strongly advised to bring them along for the best experience. \nYou will learn a variety of filmmaker basics\, from framing and composition to white balance and three-point lighting.

More recently\, Aaron has overseen production for Collaborative Media\, a London-based film company producing corporate video and documentary programmes broadcast on Sky Channel 182. As City Eye’s newly appointed Production Manager\, he is keen to use his knowledge and experience to push the organisation to even greater heights through its own projects and in its support of established and developing filmmakers. \nThe session will run at City Eye from 12pm – 3pm on Saturday 19 November.  If you are unable to attend these workshops – fear not\, City Eye’s programme of training sessions and workshops will resume in the new year\, so keep an eye out for updates on social media or sign up to its mailing list via the website. \n

SUMMARY:SFW22: Into Film - Sing 2
DESCRIPTION:Sing 2 (2021)\nFriday 18 November 2022 at 10:00am\nDir. Garth Jennings | USA| 1hr 50m | U \nWe are very excited that SFW and IntoFilm Festival are coming together again in 2022 to offer school groups the opportunity to enjoy fabulous film\, and we will once again be screening at MAST – Mayflower Studios on Guildhall Square in Southampton. \nThe Into Film Festival is a free\, annual\, nationwide celebration of film & education for 5-19 year olds.  It helps educators bring learning to life for 5-19 year olds across the UK by inspiring young people to watch\, understand and make film in new and creative ways. \nWe are offering 2 films this year\, Clifford the Big Red Dog (2021)\, with an age guide of 7-11 and Sing 2 (2021) with an age guide of 5-11. \nPlease note that booking for this event is through IntoFilm only. \n \nHaving previously saved his local theatre through a hugely popular singing competition\, koala bear and music manager Buster Moon has his sights set on an even bigger musical extravaganza in the bustling Las-Vegas like city of Red Shore. Along with his friends and performers – including the singing pigs Rosita and Gunter\, porcupine rocker Ash and shy Gorilla Tommy – Buster heads to the city to discover that the only way the show will go on is if he can convince reclusive rockstar-lion Clay Calloway to come out of retirement to be part of the show. However\, since Clay’s wife passed away\, he is reluctant to ever go back onto the stage again. Full of recognizable musical numbers and a slapstick sensibility\, Sing 2 also explores the importance of music in our lives as more than just a form of entertainment. \nTaking place from 8-25 November\, the Into Film Festival helps educators bring learning to life for 5-19 year olds across the UK by inspiring young people to watch\, understand and make film in new and creative ways. \nPlaces will be offered for free on a first-come\, first-served basis\, with attendance this year limited to one school group per event to help us to ensure the safety of all attendees and allow us to maximise the impact on the largest possible audience of children and young people across the UK. \nInto Film supports teachers and educators to achieve a wide range of effective learning outcomes in their use of film. Their programme includes the Into Film+ film streaming platform\, a network of extra-curricular Into Film Clubs\, resources for use in clubs or the classroom\, face-to-face and online training opportunities\, an annual cinema-based film festival and the prestigious Into Film Awards. The programme has been designed to meet the needs of all four nations in the UK. \n is run by film charity      Charity Number 1089882 \nWe are delighted\, with support of our partners\, to present a number of events for free but if you are able to make a donation when purchasing your ticket or attending an event we will be incredibly grateful – and able to sustain City Eye and Southampton Film Week for years to come!  Thank you.

SUMMARY:SFW22: Right of Way
DESCRIPTION:Right of Way (2022)\nThursday 17 November 2022 at 3:00pm\nDir. Various | UK | 1hr 30m | 12A | Archive footage & New Artist Film  | Captioned for the hard of hearing  \nWe’re told we all have a right to roam in the countryside – but does that apply to everyone equally?  \n \nRight of Way is a new feature-length programme that mixes stunning new artists’ commissions with historical archive films to explore the wider landscape of questions around access and inclusion in the UK countryside.  \nThe programme is inspired by the foundation of the National Trails. Set up to resist sweeping industrialisation\, these protected landscapes were created with a vision to ‘connect people to the rural landscape’\, but during the COVID-19 pandemic – as people realised anew the importance of nature and open spaces for our health and mental wellbeing – inequalities of access to rural land were being exposed\, revealing the disconnect felt by millions of people towards the UK countryside. A 2019 government review found that many Black\, Asian and ethnically diverse people view the countryside as an ‘irrelevant white\, middle-class club’\, concluding that this divide is only going to widen as society changes and ‘the countryside will end up being irrelevant to the country that actually exists’.  \nThe new commissions interrupt and challenge the enduring perception of the rural idyll as an untouched and unchanging space where time stands still. What happens when Black\, Asian and other ethnically diverse people enter these landscapes? How can our natural spaces be homes to protest\, trespass\, activism and raves? Paired with archive films this programme is a terrific platform for debate on historical and contemporary discussions about who has a right to the great outdoors and who is excluded from it.  \nDetails of the full programme are below. \n\n  \nNew Commissions:\nblack strangers\nDan Guthrie | UK | 2022 \nAfter seeing him mentioned on a Bishop’s Transcript held in Gloucestershire Archives\, Dan goes for a walk in the woods in search of Daniel\, a man buried in Nympsfield on the 31st December 1719 and described on the document as ‘a black stranger’. Whilst walking\, Dan talks directly to Daniel\, speculating about the parallels between him and his namesake and wrestling aloud with the problems that come with trying to read the archive at face value and fill in its gaps. \n\nPastoral Malaise\nUfuoma Essi | UK | 2022 \n\nPastoral Malaise is a meditative reflection on the absences found in rural pastoral environments\, that are often framed by a false romanticism and picturesque conventions\, constructed as tourist sites within rural landscapes across Britain. Inspired by Una Marson’s poem Spring In England and Dorris Henderson’s 1965 cover of the popular British folk song One Morning In May\, the film recalls an imagined relationship to the English landscape told through memories and speculative histories. \nSyncopated Green\nArjuna Neuman | UK | 2022 \n\nSyncopated Green reflects on the history of outdoor free parties in the English countryside\, using rave music\, past and present\, to help forget the ‘official’ portrayal of England as picturesque\, nostalgic\, white\, and rural. The film invites rave music into the English landscape – turning imperial history inside out. Somewhere between a music video\, a memoir and an essay\, it asks: how might our future be different if we had other histories to lean on – and dance with? \nArchive Films:\nEastbourne\nGilbert Tomes | UK | 1958 \n\nHolidaying in Eastbourne\, the Sanderstead Youth Fellowship take in an organised walk over the South Downs from Beachy Head to Cuckmere Haven. Courtesy of Screen Archive South East at the University of Brighton \nPilgrim’s Way\nWilliam N. Boyle | UK | 1956 \n\nFrom Farnham to Canterbury\, this 120-mile trek across the famous Pilgrim’s Way section of the North Downs Way takes in some of south-east England’s prettiest towns\, villages and pastures. Courtesy of BFI National Film & Television Archive \nFather Thames\nunknown | UK | 1935 \n\nRecorded over 60 years prior to the establishment of the Thames Path National Trail\, this film follows England’s best-known river for 185 miles as it ambles from its source in the Cotswolds through several rural counties and into the heart of London. Courtesy of BFI National Film & Television Archive \nHoliday on the North Norfolk Coast\nunknown | UK | 1952 \n\nGlasgow’s Countryside Club visits the North Norfolk Coast\, taking in sights along the still-to-be-established National Trail Path. In this clip the group journeys from Morston Quay to explore Blakeney National Nature Reserve. Courtesy of the East Anglian Film Archive at the University of East Anglia \nSouth Downs Way\nunknown | UK | 1975 \n\nThis amateur travelogue-style documentary follows the route of the South Downs Way three years after its official opening\, accompanied by a voiceover providing historical narrative on the route and local history of the areas it passes through. Courtesy of Screen Archive South East at the University of Brighton \nNorfolk\, 1986\nunknown | UK | 1986 \n\nOne week before Prince Charles opens the Peddars Way Long Distance Path\, local journalist Bruce Robinson talks through the book he has written about the historic Roman road it follows. Courtesy of the East Anglian Film Archive at the University of East Anglia \nCountry Ways: The Ridgeway in October\nPaul Slater | UK | 1988 \n\nITV’s popular Country Ways television series explores The Ridgeway National Trail through the eyes of the people that live and work along the historic pathway\, commonly known as ‘Britain’s oldest road’. Courtesy of the Wessex Film and Sound Archive at Hampshire County Council \nCheck out this rousing and eccentric short film collection\, screening at MAST on Thursday 17 November. \nThis performance will be relaxed. There is a relaxed attitude to noise and movement\, and a chillout space will be available before\, during and after the show for anyone that needs a quiet space.  \n is run by film charity      Charity Number 1089882

SUMMARY:SFW22: The Experimental Short Films of Christopher Nolan - Solent University
DESCRIPTION:The Experimental Short Films of Christopher Nolan with Dr. Stuart Joy\nThursday 17 November at 1:30pm\n\n\nProduced during his formative years as a student\, Christopher Nolan‘s short films have attracted little attention when set against the backdrop of his feature filmmaking. This is partly because Tarantella (1989) and Larceny (1996) have not been made widely available. However\, in April 2021\, a copy of Tarantella was briefly uploaded to YouTube before being removed in response to a copyright claim made by Nolan‘s production company. It is unclear why the director is unwilling to allow audiences to see what he has referred to in the past as “just a surreal short\, a string of images\,” but his hesitancy to do so speaks to a wider disregard for the short film form among both critics and scholars. This talk attempts to address the assumptions surrounding the artistic and cultural value afforded to short films by offering an in-depth discussion of the elusive Tarantella and another Nolan short\, Doodlebug.\n\n \nFor fans of Christopher Nolan\, Southampton Film Week will also be screening his sci-fi epic ‘Interstellar’ later in the evening of Thursday 17 November. Click here to book! \n is run by film charity      Charity Number 1089882 \nWe are delighted\, with support of our partners\, to present a number of events for free but if you are able to make a donation when purchasing your ticket or attending an event we will be incredibly grateful – and able to sustain City Eye and Southampton Film Week for years to come!  Thank you.

SUMMARY:SFW22: Buster Keaton's Sherlock Jr at Guildhall with Compton Pipe Organ
DESCRIPTION:Sherlock Jr. (1924) with live accompaniment from Richard Hills at the Compton pipe organ\nTuesday 15 November 2022 at 7:30pm\nDir. Buster Keaton | USA | 45m | U | Feature with live music \nA film projectionist longs to be a detective\, and puts his meagre skills to work when he is framed by a rival for stealing his girlfriend’s father’s pocketwatch.  \nWe are thrilled to announce that this event will begin with a performance by Richard Hills at the organ\, demonstrating the range and full wonder of its capability\, followed by an interval and then the film screening with accompaniment. \n \nAfter a break during lockdown and the Covid pandemic it’s a joy to welcome Silver Street Films back to SFW for our longstanding film week tradition\, a classic silent film with live accompaniment from the historic Guildhall Compton Pipe Organ. Celebrated Cinema Organist Richard Hills will be presenting live soundtrack to the Buster Keaton classic\,  1924’s Sherlock Jr. \nArguably the cleverest of Keaton’s 1920’s films\, this detective fantasy takes place inside the head of a cinema projectionist (Keaton) who – in a sequence that’s a technical marvel to this day – dreams himself into the screen only to be flummoxed by the film’s editing. This film includes many other fantastical set pieces\, including one stunt that even fractured Keaton’s neck\, the footage of which made it into the final film. Keaton suffered from blinding migraines for years afterwards and was unaware of the reason\, until a doctor diagnosed him in the 1930s. \n \nThe Guildhall Compton Pipe Organ is one of Southampton’s greatest hidden treasures.  Witness to all the artists\, bands\, performances and events which have taken place at the 02 Guildhall\, the organ pipes wait patiently and quietly above the stage for opportunities such as these when at the hands of the maestro they are brought to life.  Our organ in Southampton is wonderful and unique\, providing two beautiful walnut consoles – one classic and one theatre\, or Variety as it was originally called.  The consoles are positioned either side of the stage and like the pipes above the proscenium arch generally go unnoticed. \nThis event provides a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the wonder of the silent-age as it would have been experienced at the time Sherlock Jr. was produced\, whilst enjoying the magnificent Compton Organ and a glimpse of an often over-looked jewel in the City’s rich heritage. \nTickets cost £14.95 or £12.75 (concession) including booking fee from the O2 Guildhall. \nPlease note that seating WILL BE PROVIDED although the Guildhall booking system implies that this is a standing event! \n \n is run by film charity      Charity Number 1089882

SUMMARY:SFW22: Los Fantasmas with Q&A
DESCRIPTION:Los Fantasmas (2020)\nTuesday 15 November 2022 at 7:00pm\nDir. Sebastián Lojo | Guatemala | 1hr 31m |12A | Drama | English subtitles  \nBy day\, Koki is a nice tourist guide in Guatemala City\, but at night he lures men to a hotel – where they are relieved of their property.  \n \nHandsome Koki earns a living in Guatemala City winning people’s confidence\, after which their possessions go missing. By day he is a tourist guide\, but at night he seduces men and takes them to Carlos’ hotel\, where they are robbed. Koki and Carlos are two sides of the same coin; their fates are intertwined through their violent activities. One day\, Koki is targeted by one of the men he stole from\, leading Carlos to replace him with another good-looking young man. The shock of this sudden removal of his means of subsistence causes Koki to realise what his life was like\, in an almost out-of-body experience. \nThe feature debut from Sebastián Lojo and Remi Itani\, Los Fantasmas had its premiere in Rotterdam and has played in festivals around the world\, which is a remarkable achievement for an indie film that came out of a country with little film infrastructure but great stories to tell. The film’s use of location\, situation and storytelling are all the richer for this character study that explores what people do to survive.\n\nProducer Remi Itani will join us for the screening and a Q&A.\n is run by film charity      Charity Number 1089882 \nWe are delighted\, with support of our partners\, to present a number of events for free but if you are able to make a donation when purchasing your ticket or attending an event we will be incredibly grateful – and able to sustain City Eye and Southampton Film Week for years to come!  Thank you.

SUMMARY:SFW22: Maisie
DESCRIPTION:Maisie (2021)\nSunday 13 November 2022 at 7:00pm\nDir.  Lee Cooper  | UK | 1h 16m | 15 | Documentary  | Subtitles \n‘Old Age can be a Drag.’ \nAn intimate portrait of ageing and friendship as Maisie Trollette\, Britain’s oldest drag act\, prepares\nfor his 85th birthday and meets 87 year old Darcelle XV\, Guinness World Record Holder from the\nUSA for the very first time \nImage credit: Sam Parsons | All copyright – Proper Charlie Productions 202\nAfter fifty long years in the business\, Mr. David Raven is still shaking his sequins as ‘Maisie\nTrollette’\, Britain’s oldest working drag artiste. David’s 85th is fast approaching and a special birthday performance has been arranged in the UK’s capital of camp\, Brighton.\nAt 87\, Walter Cole is The Guinness Book Of Records Oldest Performing Drag Queen in the\nWorld and he is flying over from Portland\, USA to meet David for the very first time.\nBut professional rivalries soon flare between Britain’s feisty Pantomime Dame and America’s\nregal Pageant Queen\, and as his birthday grows nearer David must deal with the unique\nchallenges that performing in your eighties can bring.\nDavid has recently been diagnosed with health issues\, and the surprise birthday event only adds\nto his growing anxiety. But ever the professional\, ‘Maisie’ gives the performance of a lifetime as\nshe looks back on half-a-century of entertaining.\nFeaturing Broadway classics such as ‘Lady is a Tramp’\, ‘One’\, and ‘If I Never Sing Another Song’\,\nMAISIE is a hilarious\, heart-warming and often heart-breaking peek into the world of a character\nmore colourful than his gowns. \nDirector’s Statement\nThere are many amazing ‘coming out’ stories committed to film\, but how often do we get to see\nthe other end of the tale? I wanted to explore what it means to be queer in our twilight years.\nOver the course of three years I was fortunate to be granted unique access into the colourful\nworld of both David Raven and ‘Maisie’ as he prepared for his 85th birthday with all the\nchallenges that can bring.\nThe first cut was a very different film. The ‘life of’ rather than a ‘day in the life of’. But the fashion\nart director in me became obsessed with the intimate detail. His use of an old Brillo pad to apply\nhis foundation. The soiled old tights he uses as a wig cap.\nI soon realised that the voiceovers and anecdotes were detracting from the real story. Instead\, I\nwanted to capture the beauty of old age. The drama that can be found in watching an old man\nstruggle to get into a pair of glitter heels.\nOld age is not ‘sexy’\, and the LGBTQ older community in particular don’t want to talk about it.\nBut who will look after us when we are older if we don’t have children or are estranged from our\nfamilies at a younger age?\nHopefully we have created a story that transcends the LGBTQ community and is ultimately an\ninspirational look at the life of a remarkable individual. \n\nThe fifteenth annual Southampton Film Week – Celebrating film across the city.  \n11-21 November 2022 www.southamptonfilmweek.com \nA note on ticket prices: \nAt Southampton Film Week we want everyone to be able to watch great films together. In response to the financial challenges that so many people are facing\, and with the support of our partners\, we have adopted a ‘pay what you can’ approach for some of our events. \nIf you are able to pay towards the cost of your ticket and to help make the festival affordable for others please do buy a ticket or make a donation.  \nIf making a donation would be difficult for you financially please don’t be deterred from booking a ticket and coming to enjoy this event.

SUMMARY:SFW22: knit the walls
DESCRIPTION:We are grateful to BFI FAN and The National Lottery for funding to support this event. Please complete this survey so that we can feed back to them.\n  \n‘knit the walls’\nIn 2018 SFW: Shorts\, Southampton Film Week’s own short film competition\, received a submission from it’s youngest ever filmmaker\, 13 year old Imogen Dunlop.  The film was a documentary  about the wonderful community project knit the walls.  Against stiff competition Imogen won the hearts of the audience and won the Audience Award at the SFW: Shorts Screening and Awards Ceremony.  As the ‘knit the walls project’ neared completion\, Imogen\, now 17\, suggested to sarah\, the artist and inspiration behind the project\, that she make another film\, this time about the project’s conclusion. Both Imogen’s original film and her new film will be installed in God’s House Tower from 11 November until 4 December. On Sunday 13 November sarah and Imogen will come together for a conversation about the project and the films.  You are invited to join them.  It’s sure to be a lovely event\, discussing how inspiring and empowering the ‘knit the walls’ project has been to the local community. This is a FREE event and no booking is required. \nAfter more than three million knitted stitches\, thousands of hours of warm conversation and countless shared stories\, as well as many hundreds of cups of tea and a lot of cake\, the six-year ‘knit the walls’ community-focused art project will come to an end this November. ‘knit the walls’ is a co-created community art project\, conceived and led by Southampton-based artist sarah filmer\, working alongside city residents in the production of a knitted version of the city’s medieval walls. The project emerged from the realisation that whilst the walls have silently witnessed the everyday lives of millions of the city’s residents over hundreds of years\, the stories we hear of the city’s past describe the big events\, those of national and international importance. And yet we each live our own day-to-day existence\, with small occurrences and personal stories comprising our individual lived experiences – often of no interest or consequence to anyone but ourselves and those close to us. \nSince 2016\, the work has seen an ever-growing\, evolving community of contributors come together each month at God’s House Tower and other venues\, bringing together hundreds of knitters from across Southampton’s diverse communities and beyond. ‘knit the walls’ has offered a space to gather\, knit\, to be creative\, or just to chat\, laugh\, and be surrounded by community. In recent months\, the project has evolved further through the creation of other knitted objects\, the outcomes of which will feature in the final exhibition\, launching at GHT on Friday 11th November. Just as the stone walls hold the stories of the city\, household objects hold our personal stories\, and knitters have been encouraged to bring items and encase them with stitches\, to contribute to a woollen ‘front room’ complete with knitted wallpaper\, that will feature in the final exhibition. \n \nsarah filmer is an artist based in Southampton\, England. she is an associate lecturer in fine art at Solent university. Her practice research interests include the articulation of women’s stories via shared activity\, with ‘knit the walls’ revisioning recorded history through a feminist lens. \nImogen Dunlop studies film and media video production at Barton Peveril Sixth Form College. Imogen describes herself as having ‘been a creative person my whole life and have been creating stories since i learned to write’. Imogen has described her filmmaking journey below: \n“i went up to sarah and asked if i could make a documentary about knit the walls. at this point it had only been going for about a year\, but she was happy for me to run around with my camera and try it out. my dad helped me with the editing and the technical stuff and then boom! my first film was born. not only was my first film born\, but i then managed to win the Audience Choice award at Southampton Film Week in 2018\, when i was just 13 years old.” \nGHT will host a launch event for the ‘knit the walls’ finale on Friday 11th November from 6pm – 8pm. Tickets to the launch are free and available on Eventbrite here. \nYou can find details of other activities and events throughout November at God’s House Tower on their website. \n is run by film charity      Charity Number 1089882

SUMMARY:SFW22: Dream Palaces - Where are they now?
DESCRIPTION:Dream Palaces – Where are they now?\n‘Dream Palaces – Where are they now?’ is a short film presentation by local art enthusiast and cartoonist Al Welch which compares historic Southampton picture houses with what they\, or their locations\, look like today. \n \nIn 1996\, to help celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of the cinema\, Southampton City Council published a history book detailing the former cinemas (or movie theatres) of Southampton. \nNamed ‘Dream Palaces – Going to the Pictures in Southampton’\, the beautiful book features a collection of memories and images of the former cinemas around the city and some in the suburbs\, including The Broadway in Portswood\, The Shirley Regent and the Woolston Picture House. Creators Bill White\, Sheila Jemima and Donald Hyslop joined forces with photographer John Lawrence to compile a window to the past that celebrates not only Southampton’s vast history of cinema but pays tribute to its audience and staff\, twenty-seven of whom were interviewed during the making of the book. \nSince the publication of ‘Dream Palaces’\, Southampton’s exhibition scene has transformed irrevocably\, with Harbour Lights (now Picture House) as the sole survivor of the original book\, having remained open since 1995. Despite the loss of numerous cinemas\, such as Gaiety (now Sprinkles Gelato) or ABC (Switch Nightclub) their legend lives on and thanks to Al Welch and this project\, we can celebrate them once again. \nAl Welch is a cartoonist who writes and illustrates comics for his website. When not cartooning\, he volunteers at Board in the City\, a board game community café in Onslow Road\, Southampton and he often enjoys the gym\, a swim\, and a bit of walking. \n‘Dream Palaces – Where are they now?’ will premiere at City Eye on Saturday 12 November\, and will run throughout Southampton Film Week\, 11am-5pm Tuesday to Friday.  Free to attend\, no booking required.

SUMMARY:SFW22: Larkhall at Turner Sims
DESCRIPTION:We launch the 15th Annual Southampton Film Week with this free to attend concert and digital image performance\, celebrating our long-standing partnership with Turner Sims. \nExploration of the relationship between live music and moving image has been a theme of Southampton Film Week since its first edition in 2008. We are thrilled to achieve this in 2022 with this innovative performance by composer\, pianist and creative coder Larkhall. \n\nAlgorithms are art. Coding is creative. Let Larkhall show you. \nMad scientist and concert pianist Larkhall has invented a computer system named Otto. Otto responds in real time to Larkhall’s performance\, creating stunning live visuals. \nAlgorithms play a role in our daily lives. They shape everything from weather forecasts\, to driving directions\, to social media feeds. But can they be… art? \nA composer\, pianist and creative coder\, Larkhall’s debut album The Sea Was Never Blue reached #2 on the iTunes Classical chart. Tonight\, he performs new classical piano music as live visuals are created and projected on the big screen behind him in response. These ‘vividly beautiful’\, ‘enchanting’ compositions (Chicago Sun-Times) shed new light on how science\, technology\, engineering and mathematics can be used creatively. \nSee technology\, visual art and music collide in this moving\, cinematic performance of the future. \nJoin us for the after-party! The bar will be open and the music will be playing. \nA new exciting voice on the contemporary scene. Times Radio \nAbsolutely lovely. Scala Radio \n \nPresented by Turner Sims in association with City Eye as part of Southampton Film Week. \nEntrance is FREE. All audience members must book a ticket. \nFREE WORKSHOP: Saturday 12 November 10.30am – 12.30pm\nCreative Coding with Larkhall\nFIND OUT MORE \n is run by film charity      Charity Number 1089882 \nWe are delighted\, with support of our partners\, to present a number of events for free but if you are able to make a donation when purchasing your ticket or attending an event we will be incredibly grateful – and able to sustain City Eye and Southampton Film Week for years to come!  Thank you.
