Into Film Clubs
Find out everything you need to know about starting an Into Film Club.
Our Spring Screenings programme is fast-approaching, but there's still time to book your places and join us at free film screenings and special events across the UK.
Taking place between 8-28 March, in major cities and smaller towns across the UK, our 2024 programme is our biggest and best spring offering yet, with hundreds of screenings to help educators bring learning to life for 5-19 year olds, including a large number of autism-friendly screenings.
All events are completely free, and while many are already booked up, there are still exciting special events and incredible film screenings with places still available. We've highlighted a few choice recommendations below, or, to see screenings close to you, simply pop your location into the search bar at the top of this page.
Scrapper + Careers Panel Discussion
In Rhyl, in North Wales, we have a special screening of celebrated British film Scrapper, which will be followed by a discussion with a professional filmmaker from the local area, who will speak to the audience about their career.
Further screenings of Scrapper are taking place in Hamilton in Scotland, Rhyl in Wales, and Coventry, Stroud, Staines, and Worcester in England, as well as in further locations across the UK.
Tish + Careers Panel Discussion
In Cardiff, Wales, we have a screening of biographical film Tish, which explores the work of social documentary photographer Tish Murtha, who dedicated her life to championing working-class communities like the one she grew up in South Shields. The screening will be followed by a discussion with a professional filmmaker from the local area, who will speak to the audience about their career.
Origin
Our programme will be kick-started in London with a special pupil premiere of Ava Du Vernay's Origin; a powerful and educational film, adapted from the best-selling novel Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents by Isabel Wilkerson, which sheds new light on the history of racism and chronicles how the hierarchy of human divisions defines lives today.
The special opening event in London is fully booked (although you can join the waiting list!) but there are further screenings of Origin taking place in Bristol, Cardiff, Glasgow and Manchester with spaces available.
Robot Dreams
Robot Dreams is a vibrant, dialogue-free and recently Oscar-nominated feature animation which boasts sophisticated and emotional storytelling about the complexities of friendship and how relationships can evolve.
You can book to see Robot Dreams in Devon and Exeter in England, in Dumfries and Galloway and Campbelltown in Scotland, and Cardiff in Wales.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem
This recent adaptation of the popular franchise adopts a unique and stunning animation style to tell a vibrant and chaotic story of brotherly love and acceptance, and is the first to cast actual teenagers in the main voice roles.
You can book to see Teenage Mutant Nina Turtles: Mutant Mayhem in County Down in Northern Ireland; Conwy, Rhyl, and Gwynedd in North Wales, and Carmarthen in the South; as well as Ambleside, Chippenham, Goole, Fareham, Hull, and Swanage in England, as well as in further locations across the UK.
And if those titles don't take your fancy, or those locations aren't convenient, then remember that the above is just a small selection - there are hundreds more screenings across the UK with availability left, including screenings of adorable animation Marcel the Shell with Shoes On, women's football documentary Copa '71, and The Canterville Ghost, a delightfully rambunctious animated version of the classic Oscar Wilde story.
