The Light Inside - Screening and Q&A

Join us for a special event with a screening and Q&A.

NZ Society Charitable Grant recipient Harry Knight has produced this latest short film with director and writer Jesse Daniel Lawrence. The film has received many nominations and we are delighted to show the screening followed by a Q&A regarding a very important topic; mental health. The short film was made in collaboration with mental health charity Bath Mind. 25% of ticket sales will be donated to Bath MIND.
