FLAG WARS at Barbican (06 NOV 18:30):

  • Architecture On Film presents a UK premiere: Laura Poitras (CITIZENFOUR) and Linda Bryant’s award winning observation of complex urban conflicts, as a black working class neighbourhood receives an influx of white homosexual homebuyers.

HIT THE NIGHT + Q&A with director Jeong Ga-young at ICA (06 NOV 18:30):

  • Under the pretext of carrying out research for her new scenario, director Ga-young plays the lead in HIT THE NIGHT as a filmmaker, and interviews a man she’s been wanting to get to know. Asking him to consider her a friend, she begins to draw out details of his sexual fantasies and relationship status, and her real intentions for the meeting slowly become clear.

Sci-Fi Short Films & Networking at St Margaret’s House (06 NOV 18:30):

  • The Film Bunch presents: A sci-fi themed screening that’s out of this world. Join us as we screen some of the best short films and eat popping candy.

BLACK MOTHER at ArtHouse Crouch End (06 NOV 15:45):

  • Part film, part baptism, director Khalik Allah embarks on a spiritual exploration through Jamaica. Soaking up its bustling metropolises and tranquil countryside, Allah introduces a succession of vividly rendered souls who call the island home.

MIRAI at ICA (06 NOV 16:00):

  • Four-year-old Kun has a new baby sister, and the loving attention once lavished on him by his parents appears to evaporate instantly. With his mother and father preoccupied, Kun experiences the arrival of his sister Mirai as competition for their love.

SUSPIRIA (1977) at The Prince Charles (06 NOV 18:20):

  • Dario Argento is Europe’s leading horror director and his SUSPIRIA is a masterpiece, situated between art-house aesthetics and splatter gore-fest. Argento’s expressionist hyper-assault on our senses is legendary!
