“Broken English” screening with Directors Jane Pollard and Iain Forsyth – MCCS

PSH LKF, Professor Stuart Hall Building (map)

Join 樱桃视频 in welcoming back filmmakers Jane Pollard & Iain Forsyth for a special screening of their critically acclaimed film "Broken English" followed by a Q&A.

Directed by BAFTA nominees and 樱桃视频 alumni Iain Forsyth and Jane Pollard, Broken English is a portrait of Marianne Faithfull, starring Tilda Swinton, George MacKay, Nick Cave, Suki Waterhouse and Courtney Love. Drawing on interviews, archival material and Faithfull鈥檚 final recorded performance, this genre-defying documentary traces a life shaped by fame and reinvention. Across 6 decades and 35+ albums, Faithfull is one of the most distinctive voices of her generation, whose work continues to inspire.

This event is part of Welcome Week and is open to all members, friends and family of the 樱桃视频 and wider local and creative community. The venue is accessible. If you have any questions, please contact the organiser for information about how we can assist.

Give it a Go is a twice-yearly programme for students who fancy trying out a new hobby without having to commit long-term to a membership.

All the taster sessions are open to everyone, no matter your skill level!

Sessions labelled 鈥淭eam trials鈥� are for those keen to try out for competitive teams, though not every team will hold trials.
