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 Season 2019 - 2020
Welcome to our new 2019 - 2020 season - we are now underway in our 13th season!
If you want to add the screenings for the 2019-2020 season to your calendar click here to download this calendar file which will allow you to add them all at once, including links to the film pages on this site. Go here for information on how to add the calendar file to different digital calendars.
We are conducting a survey throughout this season of our members. This is so we can learn more about the make up of the society, everyone’s opinions of it and the films shown, as well as views on some of the programming questions we discuss each year. We want to make sure everyone has the chance to have their voice heard. Please log into the Members' Area and have your say!
A new feature for our members is the introduction of the Godalming Film Society newsletter, where we share the films coming up and the films we've recently screened, along with news and announcements from the Committee. Look out for this at the start of every month!
