In its’ highest profile screening to date, BUFF On Tour – part of the British Urban Film Festival’s outreach programme – will be premiering its’ latest short film (co-produced by Buff Enterprises) at Islington Town Hall on Wednesday December the 1st. In association with the Homes for Islington project, BUFF has teamed up with award-winning filmmaker Lawrence Coke to produce ‘Stampout’ – a short docu drama which examines the issues of bullying and anti-social behaviour in the London Borough of Islington. The screening, which is free, will be followed by a facilitated question and answer session with a panel of leading experts and practitioners.
Speaking ahead of the launch for the new BUFF film festival website, the founder of BUFF, Emmanuel Anyiam-Osigwe said “Through its commitment to the industry, BUFF has played a key role in the promotion and growth of urban independent cinema in the UK and i’m looking forward to extending that commitment over the next 3 years”.
It was also announced that next year’s British Urban Film Festival will take place on the weekend of September the 3rd, 4th and 5th. The call for submissions is already open to filmmakers and companies who wish to showcase their latest work at the annual London showcase.
