Cinema Politica Newcastle is a new group in the global Cinema Politica network.

Throughout the year, we are bringing to Newcastle upon Tyne an engaging series of evening films, documentaries, and debates where the filmmakers have often gone to great lengths in order to challenge and document social and environmental issues across the world. Very few of these films have been publicly screened in the UK – don’t miss out on this opportunity!

You are invited to come and see the films and participate in the debates which follow with our invited expert speakers. For more information about our group, please visit www.cinemapolitica.org/newcastle.
