Enfield Caribbean Association, in partnership with Dugdale Arts Centre, presents the Black Film Club
The Black Film Club celebrates Black talent and stories through great films. From classics to new hits, we curate movies to inspire and bring people together and present post-show activities which give audiences the opportunity to dive deeper. Open to everyone, we share the beauty of Black cinema with the whole community.
Our pilot season, running 31st Jan-20th Mar 2025 features a little something for everyone, from sunny South London romcom Rye Lane, to a screening of the 80s cult classic Babylon, with all tickets at a special introductory rate of £5. We are also introducing the Black Film Club for Kids with brand new animated feature release The Wild Robot.
Come watch, connect, and enjoy with us!
