Hello Bossfilm/Holmewood/Local Film fans!

Just to let you know that Bossfilm have got another screening of Holmewood coming up as part of a bumper films program at an exciting new Liverpool festival.

Its on as part of the Threshold Festival at the Contemporary Urban Centre (CUC) – which is down Baltic way – Off Jamaica St.

The festival runs from 11th to 13th Feb (next weekend) and Holmewood will be screened on Saturday 12th in the afternoon/evening in the cinema. The ‘shorts’ loop kicks off at 5pm. We’re first on the list – so I assume Holmewood is first on the bill. If you can get down for 5pm that might be your best bet to catch it, but as its a loop there will likely be a few screenings between 5-12.

I’m not sure how many other films are being screened – or what they are going to be – but there are showings from: Renaissance, Serenity Pictures, Max Zadow, Violet City Teaser, ForgeMastersFilms, Reverse The Wave (some of whom I know, some I don’t) but for fans of the local film scene – I’m sure there’ll be plenty of fun to be had – including on Sunday at 19.30 a Liverpool KINO Cabaret Screening – described as “The movie shot and edited on the premises during Threshold Festival” – deffo one not to miss!!

There’s also absolutely shed loads of other stuff going on – art, dance, music, theatre – so I’d say the whole festival itself would be a pretty interesting experience. 

Tickets-wise You can either get a day or weekend pass (£6 advance/£8 on the door or £11 advance/£13 on the day respectively).
