We LOVE film!
We are a members only society which celebrates cinema by screening films that are rarely seen on the main circuit, with an emphasis on world cinema. We screen over 20 films on most Tuesdays from September to May at the Borough Hall in Godalming.
New update on our 2020 - 2021 season
In light of current Government guidelines and with consideration for the safety of our members, we will be streaming films for the first half of this new season - at least until Christmas 2020.
Although streaming a film from home can never be the same as being part of an audience, we still want to continue sharing films with our loyal members!
We now have 8 films confirmed for this season - please scroll down to click on and read more about our these films!
We are working hard to confirm the rest of the season and plan to publish a full pdf programme once all the films are in place. (Until then, the he pdf button below won't work!)
Our next film "streaming" is on Tuesday September 22nd and will be "In a Better World".
Stay safe!
