Southwark.TV Festival of Film & Local Media 2024

[Chris Haydon]

This runs from Monday 12th to Friday 16th Feb.

We start at Peckhamplex cinema showing a documentary built from a 20-year archive of locally made films. The documentary "from Local to Social" explores the four themes of the Festival - YOUTH, MENTAL HEALTH, COMMUNITY, FILM & LOCAL MEDIA. Please note, the film is Cert 12A.

Southwark.TV was a new Borough-wide web-based venture when it began in February 2003 so the journey merged with social media's arrival. But local media still has value and purpose. The working model remains relevant and might even be about to restart in Southwark.

Young people are a big focus of the week and on Thursday there's a special screening of videos made by local primary schoolchildren down the years on a fantastic range of subjects: you can expect aliens, a puddle, magic stones, some talking, animation ... and who knows, if the ideas take off, maybe a new filmmaking project will have begun!
