The Independent Cinema Office's flagship spring Screening Days event is coming to BFI Southbank, and is set to take over NFT 1, 2 and 3 from 2-4 March.
An intensive weekend of film viewing, Screening Days is your chance to get a first look at the best independent offerings due for release from April to June and to make an early start on key programming decisions. Outside of the packed screening schedule, there'll also be chances to meet fellow exhibitors from across the UK, compare notes and debate your favourites.
Titles already announced include Eighth Grade, Bo Burnham's coming-of-age comedy that comes with impressive Sundance buzz; Red Joan, a British thriller that sees Judi Dench take up a rewardingly complex role as a long-serving Russian spy; and Styx, a tense distillation of the migrant crisis as experienced by a doctor whose sailing adventure takes a dark, drastic turn. We'll share news of further film announcements as they happen.
