On Tuesday 18 March we will be holding our second documentary screening event, showcasing work by recent alumni of the MA. This is once again part of the University’s Arts & Science Festival and tying in with 2014’s theme of Life and Death, we will be finishing the evening with My Way, an intriguing look at the UK funeral industry. Admission for this event is free but booking is advised, so please drop me an email if you’d like to reserve a seat (j.j.saunders@bham.ac.uk) 
The department of American and Canadian studies is running another screening event on Thursday 20 March, ‘Life and Death’ and the Social Action Film. This promises to be another fascinating evening, including short films and a panel discussion.
To add to this wealth of cinematic treats, Flatpack Film Festival is returning to Birmingham at the end of March and there’s a preview taster screening right here on campus next Thursday. The full programme of events is on the Flatpack website.
Popcorn, anyone?
