Reclaim The Frame

Reclaim the Frame brings audiences together and builds community for films by women and non-binary filmmakers in cinemas across the UK.

We present preview and week-of-release screenings, curate cinema seasons and events, host workshops and activities, and invite filmmakers, cultural influencers, social justice campaigners, academics, artists, activists and critics into the cinema for discussions together with audiences. Our aim is to create a safe space (click HERE to see OUR VALUES in full) to further the conversations sparked by the films we support.
