A collection of footage collected from fans and musicians over a decade of the unique Butlin’s based music festival curated by bands or fans, featuring Sonic Youth, Nick Cave, Portishead, Iggy & the Stooges, The Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Seasick Steve, Lightning Bolt and more.

A Single Man

Set in 1960’s California; every single frame of this movie looks like it was taken from a glossy vintage fashion magazine. The director, Tom Ford is a fashion designer and previously worked as a tailor on Bond movies; however there is more to the film than it’s look.  The film follows a middle aged man (Colin Firth) as he prepares to commit suicide after his partner is killed in a car accident, the story is compelling and the performances superb - highly recommended.

MicMacs

This is the latest film from the director of Amelie and A Very Long Engagement, Jean-Pierre Jeunet; however it is closer to his earlier movies Delicatessen and The City of the Lost Children in its style and subject. It tells the story of Bazil, who’s life has been ruined by two rival weapons manufacturers and his ingenious plan to get his own back with some help from on odd collection of scrap collecting friends. If you’ve seen and enjoyed Delicatessen you’ll love this.
