Join us at the Big Feast 2021, where in collaboration with Flatpack Festival we’re showcasing some of the best and most bizarre films from around the globe. You can expect two fantastic programmes for the younger film fans among us, containing some of the most fun, colourful, and musical shorts you’ll ever see on a big screen (or anywhere else, for that matter). You can also look forward to a toe-tapping collection of screen dance films, exploring how dance and film can come together to create a whole new artform. We’ll also be showing a West Midlands made look at how a Sikh immigrant family dynamic changes in the wake of tragedy, and a Ridley Scott-produced look at a single day in the life of over 16,000 Indian people.
The Big Feast Big Screen can be found at Smithfield (map pin: 10)
