We\u2019re big fans of the British writer\/director Tom Kingsley, and so it\u2019s a thrill to see his newest and biggest work, Deep Cover, playing in the Centrepiece Gala slot at the festival; it\u2019s a London-set heist thriller with a dash of comedy and starring Orlando Bloom and Bryce Dallas Howard.<\/p>\n
Elsewhere, there\u2019s the UK premiere of the 12-part ITV serial, What It Feels Like For a Girl, there\u2019s Olivia Cappuccini\u2019s Love & Rage: Munroe Bergdorf, a profile of the pathfinding trans activist, and also the world premiere of upcoming series, The Institute, based on a novel by (that guy again!) Stephen King.<\/p>\n
And on top of all that, there\u2019s a film competition strand with seven key titles vying for a prize and coming from locales such as Spain, India, Switzerland, Australia, Turkey<\/a>, Lesotho and the US. It\u2019s a huge and diverse programme, covering features, shorts, series and new XR work, so tonnes and tonnes to dive into and discover.<\/p>\n Oh, and we\u2019re hosting our very own panel event<\/a> all about the rise of physical media in the digital age, with a special focus on boutique Blu-ray labels in the UK. Please do join us for that on Friday 6 June at Rich Mix from 4.30pm.<\/p>\n To see the full SXSW London programme and to book tickets, visit sxswlondon.com<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
