LONDON SHORT FILM FESTIVAL: LONDON LIVES
Please note that this is a modified, baby-friendly screening. Everyone is welcome, but the screening will take place in a relaxed environment, where babies will be present, the auditorium lights will be on and people can make noise, and exit and enter the cinema as they please.
London pulses with stories of connection found in unexpected places. A programme exploring the lives of those who brush past each other daily: two neighbours, close yet unaware of each other's private struggles; a man recalling his last night with a friend lost to hardship; a young boy weaving through the city’s high-energy streets with a backpack of cash; a British-Filipino discovering the cultural depth of Ube.
From Albanian workers finding camaraderie by a London canal to a girl connecting to her Yoruba roots through music, these films reveal the human resilience and hidden bonds within London’s mosaic.
The screening is part of London SHort Film Festival 2025. The London Short Film Festival (LSFF) is the UK's leading short film festival, now in their 22nd year and a BAFTA and BIFA qualifying, internationally-regarded independent festival.
