Success for our new cinema screenings

Thank you to all of you who came along to make our very first *cinema* DocHeads a cracking success!

What a fabulous night it was! A sold-out, packed-out cinema always makes us very happy so we were thrilled to have a full house for our launch, which features some of the most exciting documentary filmmakers of the moment, including “Notes on Blindness” directors Pete Middleton & James Spinney who joined us for the Q&A.

And luckily you agreed. Feedback from the night was overwhelmingly positive, calling the night “insightful”,”inspiring”, “stellar”,a “fantastic opportunity to see new and innovative documentaries in the mainstream”, and our personal favourite – “more please!”.
More? Well why not! We’re screening this programme across some of our favourite cinemas & venues over the coming month – our next screening is at the absolutely brilliant Lexi Cinema this Thursday 23rd and we’d love you to join us. 

Every successful screening helps us show how short documentaries belong on the big screen, helping us to create more opportunities for filmmakers and audiences alike.

Book your tickets here & don’t forget to invite your friends too: https://thelexicinema.co.uk/film/doc–heads
