Hackney Film Festival

 

The first annual Hackney Film Festival, which takes place this weekend, is an independent event celebrating the work of Hackney residents and Hackney based artists.

Its aim is to provide a platform for local film makers to have their work screened in front of an audience of fellow film lovers. Its programme of events for 2010 includes two eclectic screenings of short narrative, documentary and animated films exclusively from Hackney-based directors, and an evening of audio-visual live performances showcasing the most innovative local audio-visual artists.

Full programme available on the Hackney Film Festival website.
