Vintage Mobile Cinema comes to Walthamstow



This year London Short Film Festival is going on the road, to more spaces across London in the Vintage Mobile Cinema!

Bringing cinema directly to London’s neighbourhoods, London Short Film Festival are showing free screenings of selected New Shorts programmes across the city including London Lives, British Lives and How to Make a Friend, for our youngest short film fans.

Supported by the BFI awarding funds from the National Lottery, we’re celebrating a unique piece of cinema history: a lovingly restored 1960s Mobile Cinema Bus, originally built to deliver training videos to factory workers across Britain. Working with London Borough Waltham Forest and the Ravenswood Collective, the 22 seater bus will travel to Ravenswood Industrial Estate in Walthamstow.

Please note that due to the limited capacity, all screenings will be on a first come first served basis.
