Leytonstone Loves Film

A weekend movie spectacular for Waltham Forest London Borough of Culture 2019 which saw film pop up in unexpected places in Leytonstone

As a site of early film production and the celebrated birthplace of Hitchcock, Leytonstone has a rich cinema history. At Leytonstone Loves Film, we celebrated film culture, filmmaking and the area’s rich local film heritage.

Produced by the Barbican in partnership with local residents and organisations, this new festival brought people together over a shared love of film to inspire a new generation of makers, risk takers and radical thinkers.

A weekend-long event featuring screenings of local and international work, film-inspired workshops and activities, music, talks and installations in cafés, pubs and pop-up venues.
