In the mid-1970s a group of like-minded film-lovers came together with the aim of screening films in and around Presteigne. Starting with a 16mm projector and lots of enthusiasm Presteigne Film Society was born. It brought new movies to audiences in the area for 30 years, later becoming Presteigne Screen. We are celebrating this legacy by screening a weekend of films, old and new, marking half a century of community cinema, starting with the Coen Bros classic Fargo, then Francis Ford Coppola’s The Conversation, the newly reissued Amazon epic Aguirre, the Wrath of God, acclaimed animation   Flow, and ending with a screening of the remastered and joyous masterpiece Amadeus.

We hope you will join us to watch the films and enjoy celebrating this popular local institution. See you there!
