UK Repertory Screenings
In a year that celebrated the 40th edition of the Sundance Film Festival in the United States, Sundance Film Festival: London 2024 will also showcase highlights of features and shorts presented over the years at the festival.
The festival will screen two acclaimed UK features for audiences to re-discover from Sundance Film Festival history. Those two features are Under the Skin and Kinky Boots.
Feature Films
Under the Skin (1997)
(Director and Screenwriter: Carine Adler, Producer: Kate Ogborn)
Under The Skin launched the careers of two major British talents: Carine Adler and Academy Award nominee Samantha Morton. An acute psychological portrait of a young woman, Iris Kelly (Samantha Morton), experiencing a breakdown followed by a partial reintegration after the death of her mother from cancer Iris believes her elder sister, Rose, was her mother's favourite, and this has exacerbated her distress and her revolt against Rose's values.
Cast: Samantha Morton, Stuart Townsend, Claire Rushbrook, Rita Tushingham
Director Carine Adler and other key members of the Under the Skin film team will be present for the screening's introduction and Q&A, and the film will be screened on a 35mm print.
Kinky Boots (2005)
(Director: Julian Jarrold, Screenwriters: Geoff Deane, Tim Firth, Producers: Peter Ettedgui, Suzanne Mackie)
Inspired by a true story, Kinky Boots sees Charlie Price set about rescuing his dad's ailing Northampton shoe factory, which has been the pride and joy of his family for generations. Facing the imminent closure of the factory, Charlie begins to feel all is lost. A chance encounter with sassy, flamboyant Soho cabaret star Lola provides a glimmer of hope and a surprising last chance for the factory and its employees. Lola's quest for stylish, kinky women's boots (for men) might just provide the answer to Charlie's prayers but is Northampton open-minded enough for the likes of Lola? This cherished British comedy premiered at Sundance before its global release and later transformation into a Tony-winning Broadway musical.
Cast: Chiwetel Ejiofor, Joel Edgerton, Sarah-Jane Potts, Nick Frost
Short Films
Careful How You Go (2018)

Don't Hug Me I'm Scared (2019)
(Director: Joseph Pelling, Becky Sloan, Baker Terry, Screenwriters: Sam Campbell, Megan Ganz, Natasha Hodgson, Joseph Pelling, Charlie Perkins, Becky Sloan, Baker Terry, Producers: Hugo Donkin, Charlie Perkins)
Based on the hugely popular web series, following roommates Red Guy, Yellow Guy, and Duck, who live simple and repetitive lives in the complacent technicolour community of Clayhill until the town's mayor disappears, and everything descends into utter chaos.
Cast: Joseph Pelling, Becky Sloan, TomSka, Kellen Goff, Baker Terry
Robots of Brixton (2012)
(Director, Screenwriter and Producer: Kibwe Tavares)
The film follows the trials and tribulations of young robots surviving at the sharp end of inner city life, living the predictable existence of a populous hemmed in by poverty, disillusionment and mass unemployment. When the police invade the one spot which the robots can call their own, the fierce and strained relationship between the two sides explodes into an outbreak of violence echoing that of 1981.
Cast: Kibwe Tavares, Yung Swizz'Agg
Scrubber (2012)

A young mother who is both obsessed and attracted to the notions of perfection and dirt, and explores these seemingly conflicting opposites through the desperate pursuit of anonymous sex.

Streets of Crocodiles (1986)
(Director: Stephen Quay, Timothy Quay, Screenwriter: Stephen Quay, Timothy Quay, Bruno Schulz, Producer: Keith M Griffiths)

Cast: Feliks Stawinski
Special Screening of (500) Days of Summer
The festival is delighted to present a special screening of (500) Days of Summer. The screening marks 15 years since Marc Webb's classic romcom premiered.
