Sunset Screening Sessions: 10 British films that shine
The brightest outdoor cinema in London is opening up!!!
British cinema will shine like never before in South East London this summer, and you too can
catch the sun rays! Sunset Screening Sessions will present 10 glistening British films every Friday
night after sunset at Beckenham Place Park, from July 2nd to September 10th. Britain is
colourful and diverse: our programme includes comedy, horror, thriller, drama Black, LGBT movies
and more, spanning from present-day all the way back to the beginning of the 20th century. You
will get dazzled by the light!
The event
Sunset Screening Sessions is a partnership between Infinita Productions and DMovies, who
have exhibiting films across the British capital since 2017. Our objective is to provide Londoners
with a truly British and diverse open air cinema. Other open air events across the country tend
to focus on largely mainstream and American cinema.
Sunset Screening Sessions is in its first year in 2021. We wish to become firmly established in the
capital's event calendar and to return in the summer 2022 with another explosive film selection.
The programme
Diversity is the central pillar to our film selection. The 10 films paint a colourful and culturally
vibrant picture of Britain. They include comedy, horror, romance, LGBT, Black, arthouse cinema
and much more, dating from 1928 all the way to the present. Highlights includes a live music
score (The Lodger), a Q&A with the iconic Julien Temple (Crock of Gold: A Few Rounds with
Shane MacGowan) and a dog-friendly screening (23 Walks ).
All but one of the films (I Am Not A Witch) are set either entirely or partly in London, some of
them not far from Beckenham Place Park itself. You will feel very much at home!
