SHREWSBURY FILM SOCIETY

Shrewsbury Film Society offers a varied programme of the best current and classic films from around the world in a friendly, social atmosphere.

Screening at The Hive in the heart of the town centre, our main season consists of 16 films showing on alternate Friday evenings between September and April. We are members of Cinema for All, the national support organization for film societies, and of the Film Hub Midlands, which generously supports some of our film shows.

We accept £5 donations for membership and films are £6 which need to be booked online through The Hive’s website. As a not-for-profit organisation run by volunteers, membership fees and ticket sales go towards booking films, venue hire, and promoting and developing Shrewsbury Film Society.

So...if you love films, social evenings & friendly surroundings all at a great price, why not join us for a great night of cinema? The bar is open from 7:30pm with films showing at 8pm.

Set during the Arab Revolt of the 1930s under British rule in Palestine, this historical drama follows ordinary people drawn into a growing movement of resistance and political upheaval.
