HARBOUR LIGHTS REOPENING

ID FEST 2013

Southampton cinephiles rejoice! After a two week closure, Harbour Lights Picturehouse reopened its doors on the 12th July 2013 and the public were greeted by brand new screening rooms and... ahem... new loos.

by CAINE BIRD

2013 marked iD Fest’s fourth year. As the name suggests, the festival attempts to represent films that depict identity on screen and this year its focus was on “family”. The festival boasted a generous line-up with films ranging from Toyko Story (1953) to Clerks (1996), all connected through their representation of family on screen, whether symbolic or real. Read the festival review here.
