Reel Brum 2

Monday 13th May, 2024

The Mockingbird Cinema - Screen 1 | 18:00 - 19:30

Reel Brum is a network and creative hub for filmmakers of all levels based in Birmingham.

Its aims are to foster a creative community within the city, connecting like-minded people to produce consistent, high quality films.

We’re joining forces with Reel Brum for two programmes that showcase the best of Birmingham’s filmmaking talent (see the first programme here). We’re excited to present the best of all the films shown at Reel Brum’s events over the past year, one of which will go on to win the Reel Brum award!

This programme also includes the first film ever funded and produced by the Reel Brum team.

This is one of three Reel Brum events. See also: Reel Brum 1 and Reel Brum Award.
