In a legendary feat of leadership and perseverance, polar explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton kept his crew of 27 men alive for over a year despite the loss of their ship in frigid pack ice. Over a century later, a team of modern-day explorers sets out to find the sunken ship.

From National Geographic Documentary Films and directed by Chai Vasarhelyi, Jimmy Chin and Natalie Hewit, ENDURANCE tells the inspiring stories of these two landmark expeditions, bound by their shared grit and determination.

Preview offered as part of BFI London Film Festival 2024.

Booking is now open for our members. Remaining tickets will go on general sale September 17th at 10am.

Eric Ravilious was as compelling and enigmatic as his art. Set against the dramatic wartime locations that inspired him, Kinmonth’s film brings to life this brilliant but still grossly undervalued British artist.

Caught in the crossfire of war 80 years ago, Ravilious’s legacy largely sank without trace, until now.

Made with the blessing of the Ravilious Estate, this first full-length feature documentary about Ravilious unfolds in his own words, through previously unseen private correspondence and rare archive film.

Shot entirely on location in the UK, Portugal and Ireland, the film features Ai Weiwei, Alan Bennett, Grayson Perry among others.

Formerly a Vogue cover model, Lee Miller (Kate Winslet) became one of the most prominent war correspondents of WW2: renowned for her intrepid courage and determination to deliver work that was memorable and brilliant.

From cinematographer-turned-director Ellen Kuras (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), LEE tells the spectacular true story of an American pioneer who was way ahead of her time, and whose singular talent and ferocious tenacity gave us some of the 20th century’s most indelible images.

We are back with our 2nd annual FOSCARS, an evening of community celebration and cinema.

This year we have teamed up with our friends at Stage Fright, Gateway into the Community, Hexham Priory and We Can Enable. Each group has worked hard to produce a short film to share with us on the big screen before a special singalong screening of Matilda the Musical.

The night will end with an awards ceremony where members of the group will be awarded for their creativity with our very special, Forum Oscars.

The event is open to all members of the public, and we encourage smart dress and a celebratory attitude.

Based on the best-selling memoir by Amy Liptrot, THE OUTRUN is set in the otherworldly Orkney islands of Scotland. A brutally honest drama about addiction and recovery, strength and survival, mental health and the ability of the sea, the land and of people to restore life and renew hope.

After a decade away in London, 29-year-old Rona returns home to the Orkney Islands. Sober but lonely, she tries to suppress her memory of the events which set her on this journey of recovery. Slowly the mystical land enters her inner world and – one day at a time – Rona finds hope and strength in herself among the heavy gales and the bracingly cold sea.
