Experimental Film Weekender

Join us for two days of experimental films at CMR Project Space!

This year, as part of the Cornwall Film Festival we will be celebrating everything experimental about film on Friday 10th and Saturday 11th November,  in partnership with Cornwall Film Festival and Mor Media.

As well as screening The Jangling Man on Friday night we will also be screening a series of shorts during both days.

The short films will be played back to back on a loop so you can drop in and out at any time.

Screening will be on:
Friday 10th November & Saturday 11th
11am - 5pm on the top floor of CMR.
No booking required.

The screening will be comprised of a series of selected short films and a curated selection of short films.
