Film Hub Podcast #14 - Brilliant Corners - Jazz on Film
Sara and Hugh talk to Mick Bonner and Rose Baker of Moving on Music about the film programme in their forthcoming jazz and new music festival beginning on the 27th February 2020.
We talked about jazz on film, how to track down rare films, and how audiences find excitement in being challenged. Featuring Shirley Clarke's 1961 classic, The Connection, and a documentary on the South African Queen of Jazz, Miriam Makeba, and the King of Free Jazz Cecil Taylor, the programme is screening the finest finds from screen jazz.
Sara's famous NI indie film round up finishes things off nicely.
Let's show films, you jazz mavericks!
Supported by National Lottery funds, Film Hub NI was established in 2013 by Queen’s Film Theatre, Belfast in their capacity as NI’s BFI Film Hub Lead Organisation (FHLO). FHNI works to support the creativity and energy of the film exhibition sector across NI and ensure a wide range of film is available to audiences right across the country.
The BFI Film Audience Network (FAN) is made up of 8 Film Hubs which cover the whole of the UK. Each Film Hub is led by a Film Hub Lead Organisation (FHLO) that receives funding from the BFI to deliver extensive programming, audience development activity and support sector training in their region.
