Venue: Furness & Midland Hall, Carnforth Station.
Starts 7:35pm – FREE ADMISSION
We’re presenting a selection of international short films with an air of romance, screened in the ideal surroundings of Carnforth Station, where scenes from the classic film Brief Encounters – one of the UK’s greatest romances – were filmed.
We’re hosting this evening of films in association with folly and the evening will include everything from light-hearted comedies to poignant tear-jerkers: there will be something for everyone, with films from the UK and abroad.
And you don’t have to come as a couple! It’s open to all, and what’s more the night is free.
Stories include the shy woman in the British Library who spells out her declarations of love in book titles in Rare Books and Manuscripts, a French actress who practices her lines with a stranger in a cafe in On S’Embrasse, the experimental Evol, the tale of the cleaner and the security guard, and, of course Industrial Love Dwarf No. 7.
For Lancastrians wishing to attend, the train from Lancaster arrives at the station just after half past 7, and there are buses or a train back to Lancaster after the show.
This event is sponsored by Signposts with funding from the Carnforth Area Regeneration Project and the Market Towns Initiative, and is supported by the Carnforth Station Trust.
We’re pleased to be working In partnership with Future Shorts, Dazzle Films and Rubberductions, all of whom are providing us with a world-class programme of films.
