Premieres

Continuing our September film month theme, come and mark the last days of summer with beer, popcorn and some fresh new experimental documentary films by young local talent.

Firedive is Tim Bowditch’s short documentary about La Vallette Bathing pools in Guernsey.  Shot in September last year and fresh off the back of its poolside premiere in Guernsey, Firedive will be shown for the first time in London.  The film explores the collective memory of Islanders recollecting the floodlit galas and fire dives that once took place.
