Brixton Community Cinema is a pilot-scheme pop-up screening event. The objective of the cinema is to bring affordable international and independent film to a community who, despite immense cultural contributions, face uneven access to arts institutions.
The cinema will screen a range of films across genre and format which foreground subaltern voices and experiences, and showcase the breadth of experimental approaches to using film as a medium of expression and protest.
Operating on a pay-what-you-can basis, it aims to explore ways to minimise both the financial and non-financial barriers to cinema-going.
Set up by film enthusiast and South Londoner, Abiba Coulibaly, the cinema has been supported by the Extra Nice Fund.
