OUTREACH

In previous years we have shown films at different venues around Harrogate. During 2020 because of Covid-19, that wasn't possible. Given the general restrictions on running pop-up screenings or indeed providing our Core Programme screenings at the Odeon, we instead established a new streaming service of recently produced  films from around the world. However, that has now finished.

​

During 2021, we worked with Harrogate Theatre to put on a screening of Metropolis with a live music ensemble which added a totally new and rarely experienced dimension to the viewing experience of this highly regarded silent film.

​

In March 2022, we again worked with Harrogate Theatre to screen a 90 year old cinematic masterpiece, which breaks cinematic conventions - The Passion of Joan of Arc.  The central performance Rene Maria Falconetti is still held by many as one of the finest performances in cinematic history!

​

In April 2022, we helped members of the Harrogate Hong Kong Community liaise with Harrogate Odeon to put on a Special Event - Revolution of our Times Documentary. The film, currently banned in China and Hong Kong is a brave, unflinching, painful but ultimately uplifting depiction of seven teams of protestors fighting for democracy in Hong Kong in 2019-2020. We were pleased to help make this happen as the film has been rarely shown outside of London.

​

As a reminder of previous pop-up screenings,  here are the trailers for Some Like it Hot and Cabaret, which we showed at the Manhattan Club in 2019.
