The Ritzy New Stories shorts are back!
Sunday 29 July, 3.00
Thursday 2 August, 6.45
Last February The Ritzy launched a short film competition aimed at local filmmakers, and during the Ritzy 100 closing celebrations we presented the best of local filmmaking talent to a full house.
Now, to celebrate the release of local documentary UNFLAPPABLE, we are bringing back the audience favourites! Not to be missed!
UNFLAPPABLE
Directors: Neil Arun, Will Aspinall. UK 2012. 24 mins
Cairo. Tunis. Tripoli. Brixton? In 2011, the Arab world was seized by revolt. Inspired and unemployed, two friends form South London hatch a plan to unite their neighbourhood. UNFLAPPABLE is the story of the Brixton Flag. It is a comedy about community, friendship and the quest for the perfect flagpole. It is also an affectionate, offbeat portrait of Brixton - the only place in London where a leftfield scheme about flags could get a fair hearing.
