LA1 Shorts (12A) is an opportunity to celebrate some of the excellent independent film being made locally. They include a love story set in Morecambe Bay, surreal animations and gripping dramas.

The screening will be followed by a Question and Answer session with the filmmakers themselves and the chance to stay for a drink, network and perhaps even be inspired to take up filmmaking yourself.

Just before LA1 Shorts, audiences can also enjoy BAFTA Shorts (15) with a chance to catch several of this year’s nominated short films on the big screen including the winners, Operator and Edmond.

The Dukes’ Short Film Season concludes on March 26 with This Is Not A Cartoon (18) featuring animated shorts rarely seen outside festivals.
