Straight 8 Originals.

by Jason Stone

The Straight 8 circus rolls into the BFI on the Southbank for the second time in a fortnight this Thursday (8th June 21:15). A very special event will give the audience an unusual opportunity to watch some of the greatest films from its rich twenty-four year history, being projected on to the big screen from within the auditorium.

Films from starry Straight 8 alumni such as Edgar Wright and Alice Lowe are among those that will be shown to an audience likely to take all the available seats.

there will also be an opportunity to hear the thoughts of directors Asif Kapadia and Mark Jenkin in conversation afterwards.

At the time of writing there are still a few tickets available, so come along and join Ed Sayers, Alex Glynn and other supporters of Straight 8 for a fantastic celebration of this special, special format.
