"inspired by Saint Etienne" mini-fest (17 & 18 January)
Saint Etienne started out as pop band but their creativity has expanded far beyond that. To celebrate the completion of their residency at London’s South Bank Centre they are coming up to show us their new film about that classic fifties modernist building on the Thames.
We’ll also be showcasing most of their other films – all about London – that help us to think about the city here and how it is changing. Accompanying all the aesthetic and cerebral stimuli are some cracking tunes. Oh and we’ve also got a first ever exhibition of the classic football programmes curated by Bob & Paul.
