Director Sean McAllister returns to his hometown, Hull, as curator of its UK City of Culture opening. Back living with his 90-year-old parents and reflecting on changes to a city hit by cuts in public spending and divided by Brexit, Sean is drawn to the fringes of town where he encounters Steve, a struggling warehouse worker with a dream to take hip-hop to disadvantaged kids through his Beats Bus. This is your chance to meet and ask some questions with on of the best UK documentary film makers! (£7).

The perfect balance of a social night out, blended with festival quality short films from around the world!
We're now on the first Monday of the month, in multiple cities around the UK, creating one large national audience.

Expect a wonderfully varied selection of short films, which we'll discuss, then vote for our favourite. Have your questions answered by programmed filmmakers or special guests*, all the while enjoying a wide selection of drinks from the bar (there's even popcorn!). Then to round off, we will share our Director's Choice, a slightly longer short, selected by our judging panel.

Academy Award® nominated director Mark Kitchell brings us the story of organic agriculture, told by those who built the movement. The film is narrated by recent Oscar® winner Frances McDormand.

A motley crew of back-to-the-landers, spiritual seekers and farmers’ sons and daughters reject chemical farming and set out to explore organic alternatives. It’s a heartfelt journey of change from a small band of rebels to a cultural transformation in the way we grow and eat food. By now organic has gone mainstream – split into an industry oriented toward bringing organic to all people, and a movement that has realised a vision of sustainable agriculture. (£7)
