Playback: Touring Exhibition in association with Random Acts

Date: Friday, Aug 18 2017 - Sunday, Aug 27 2017
Venue: Arnolfini

Watch over 200 bold and creative short films made by young artist filmmakers.

The award-winning short films that feature in this interactive exhibition have been created by 16-24 year-olds from all over England, including many young filmmakers from Bristol.

Presenting films that cover a wide variety of subjects and art forms, Playback reflects the concerns and vision of a diverse pool of young people working with film today. From narrative films about drag queens, super-heroes, job centres and zombies to animated stories that feature talking goldfish and radioactive snails.
