A Brief History of Today

A Brief History of Today is a private screening for cast, crew, family and friends, bringing together a collection of short films from talented emerging filmmakers finding their voices and carving out their place within the industry.

Spanning a variety of genres, styles and perspectives, the programme celebrates the work being made by a new generation of filmmakers, as well as the actors, crews and collaborators who help bring that work to life.

At its heart, the afternoon is about the beauty of cinema. Its ability to take us into lives beyond our own, to make something deeply personal feel universal, and to transform an idea shared between a small group of people into something that can be experienced collectively by an audience.

Each of these films has had its own journey from page to screen. This screening is a chance to finally experience them as they were intended, together in a cinema with an audience.
