Open Cinema is championing a new movement of cinema - #SocialCinema. We believe that any community should be able to operate their own cinema in a venue or venues of their choosing and we aim to bring back the experiential side of going to the cinema, challenging the current model of commercial cinema. We are making this possible via our new digital platform and increasing network of partner venues. Find out more at www.opencinema.coOpen Cinema Foundation started life as a nationwide network of film clubs programmed by and for homeless and socially excluded people. Each week participants watch the best in contemporary cinema and work with professional filmmakers to create films of their own.Films are regularly introduced by the filmmakers themselves. Recent guests have included Ken Loach [Kes, The Wind That Shakes the Barley], Kevin Macdonald [The Last King of Scotland, Touching the Void], Stephen Frears [High Fidelity, The Queen] and Mike Leigh [Happy Go Lucky, Vera Drake]. Our philosophy is that people excluded from society need the benefits of culture as much as advice and food. Open Cinema takes film to people at the margins, and brings them and their aspirations to the centre of cultural life.
