Battleship Potemkin. A film by Sergei Eisenstein. Music by Pet Shop Boys.

This is a special centenary edition of Sergei Eisenstein’s legendary Battleship Potemkin featuring the celebrated Tenant / Lowe score performed by Pet Shop Boys and Dresdner Sinfoniker.

A fixture in the critical canon almost since its premiere, Eisenstein’s film about a 1905 naval mutiny was revolutionary both in form and content. Battleship Potemkin is renowned for its dynamic compositional strength and editing of such frame-perfect precision that it’s hard not to be swept along.

The newly performed score blends electronic beats with orchestral grandeur to create a contemporary cinematic experience.

October 1942, most of China is living under the shadow of imperial Japan. Following the fall of British Hong Kong in December 1941, many British service personnel were taken prisoner.

The Lisbon Maru - a Japanese merchant ship covertly carrying around 1,800 British POWs in the Far East - is torpedoed by mistake off the coast of China’s Dongji Island by an American submarine, unaware of the lives hidden below deck. A brutal manhunt by the Japanese forces ensues as villagers of the island set out on a perilous mission to rescue the British soldiers and reclaim their land.

Based on a true story long buried beneath the waves, Dongjin Rescue is an epic story of human courage and survival that transcends borders and languages.

Frida Kahlo is a phenomenon. She is arguably the world’s favourite female artist – beloved by young and old. Exhibition on Screen’s award-winning film – first released during covid to a restricted audience - is back by popular demand with an exciting new addition from the blockbuster transatlantic exhibition from Tate Britain and MFA Houston 'Frida Kahlo: the Making of an Icon'. Back in the cinemas in May 2026, one month before the Tate exhibition opens, allowing audiences to watch both the film and see the show.

Who was Frida Kahlo? Everyone knows her face but who was the woman behind the bright colours, the big brows and the floral crowns? Take a journey through the life of a true icon, discover her art, and uncover the true story of her rebellious, passionate and turbulent life.

Making use of the latest technology to deliver previously unimaginable quality, we take an in-depth look at key works throughout her career. Using letters Kahlo wrote to guide us, this definitive film reveals her deepest emotions and unlocks the secrets and symbolism contained within her art.

Celebrating the 250th anniversary of their births, this unmissable new documentary explores Turner and Constable’s intertwined lives and legacies alongside the groundbreaking Tate exhibition.

Two of Britain’s greatest painters, J.M.W. Turner and John Constable were also the greatest of rivals. Born within a year of each other, both used landscape painting to reflect the changing world around them. Tate Britain is bringing these two greats together for a groundbreaking exhibition, in London from November 2025 to April 2026, and Exhibition on Screen once again has exclusive and privileged access to bring their extraordinary art and remarkable stories to the big screen in February so that you can enjoy both film and exhibition together. Discover unexpected sides to both artists with intimate views of sketchbooks and personal items and insights from leading experts.

Turner’s blazing sunsets and sublime scenes from his travels and Constable’s idealised depictions of beloved places from home whipped the public of the time into a frenzy of enthusiasm. Constable represents the very best of the old school of realism and pastoral nostalgia; Turner, an exciting new way of depicting emotion and dreamlike impressions. Critics compared their starkly different styles to a clash of ‘fire and water’. Don’t miss this opportunity to see these greats side-by-side, as they so often were in life, on the big screen for the first time.

The film that created the language of the blockbuster as we came to know it, back where it belongs - on a cinema screen at the height of summer. Still capable of delivering enough of a scare to make sure you’ll never go in the water again.

Jaws has endured as a big screen spectacle since its release in 1975 - 50 years later and it still manages to thrill like few films can.

Catch the film that cemented Spielberg as the wunderkind capable of taking the most unlikely (and difficult) material and turning it into box-office gold.

Silent Synced pairs classic silent movies with epic rock music to bring audiences a unique big screen experience. This reimagining of the iconic Nosferatu (1922) features Radiohead’s Kid A (2000) and Amnesiac (2001) albums.

An unauthorized adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Nosferatu (1922) is the quintessential silent vampire film, crafted by legendary German director F.W. Murnau. Rather than depicting Dracula as a shape-shifting monster or debonair gentleman, Murnau’s Graf Orlock (as portrayed by Mac Schreck) is a nightmarish, spidery creature of bulbous head and taloned claws - perhaps the most genuinely disturbing incarnation of vampirism yet envisioned.

Don’t miss out on the chance to experience this imaginative new take on an iconic horror classic!
