Can you imagine listening beyond the edge of your own imagination?

-Pauline Oliveiros, composer

Screening Rights is the West Midlands human rights and social justice film festival. Taking place across two Midlands venues - Warwick Arts Centre in Coventry and the Midlands Art Centre in Birmingham - this years festival celebrates radical imagination and utopian thinking.

The programme’s nine films will explore the life-saving political potential of dreams.

All screenings are followed by a post-screening panel discussion on the topics raised, including a Q&A and audience participation.

Both venues have accessible screening spaces and are equipped with accessible toilets and lifts. Every film will be shown with English subtitles. The team are keen to foster connections within and between communities, so if you want to attend the screenings as a group, we can offer you promo codes for discounted tickets as well as free tickets to those in need.

This event is part of the ESRC Festival of Social Science 2023.

This event is organised by the Screening Rights team and supported by Resonate. The full programme, and links to book tickets, can be found below.
