Film Jam Screening & In Conversation with Ajit Mann

Sun, Nov 15, 12:00 PM
From London Film Jam
4.8

Film Jam short films, filmmaker conversations and creative connections — featuring an in-conversation Q&A with filmmaker Ajit Mann. Come along for an afternoon of independent film, conversation and creative connections. The London Film Jam Sunday Screening is a chance to see what our filmmaking community has been creating, meet fellow filmmakers and creatives, catch up with old friends and make some new connections. ### **🎥 1 Month Film Jam Premieres** We’ll be premiering the latest films from our **1 Month Film Jam**, created around this month’s theme, **Childhood Memory**. Our teams had just one month to take an idea from concept to screen — bringing together writers, directors, actors, crew and other creatives to make their short films. Come along, see what they created and support the filmmakers behind the work. ### **In Conversation with Ajit Mann** This month, we’ll also be joined by independent filmmaker **Ajit Mann** for a special In Conversation and audience Q&A. We’ll be talking about the **realities and challenges of independent filmmaking** — the obstacles Ajit has faced along the way, how he has overcome them, creating your own opportunities and what he has learned through the process. There’ll also be an opportunity to **ask Ajit your own questions** about filmmaking and his experiences in the industry. ### **🎬 Meet. Watch. Connect.** There’ll be plenty of time to mingle, talk films, meet other filmmakers and creatives and build new creative connections. **Doors open at 12pm. The programme will begin promptly at 12:20pm, so please arrive in good time.** Everybody is welcome — whether you’ve taken part in Film Jam before, are thinking about joining us, or simply want to come along, watch some films and meet other creatives. **Venue:** Whirled Cinema 259–260 Hardess Street Loughborough Junction London SE24 0HN Vegan food available. 18+ event.
