Plymouth Radical Cinema
Plymouth Radical Cinema brings you free films on the 2nd Tuesday of each month at 7:30, films with a radical edge from around the world, that you don't usually find at the multiplex.
Our next film, on 14th of May, is Resilience, a documentary that explains just how much of a impact emotional trauma can have, showing how childhood stress can knock 20 years off your life expectancy. The idea that exposure to difficult experiences in childhood might lead to health problems is not new, but the ACE* research uncovers a biological connection that is a stronger predictor of coronary heart disease than high blood pressure, high cholesterol or even smoking.
The film provides a guide to how we, as individuals and in our communities, can tackle trauma - to minimise its incidence and to respond helpfully to those who have experienced it. This is the first public screening of Resilience in Plymouth. We’re showing it in collaboration with the Zebra Collective, a Plymouth-based worker cooperative that does development work with organisations in the helping professions.

Our Venue is the Devonport Lecture Theatre in the Portland Square building of Plymouth University. From North Hill it's just behind the Sherwell Centre. Doors are open from 7:00. Free parking is available after 6:00 in the Babbage car park and on North Hill. If you’re still not sure where we are, here is a link to the campus map:

If you want to eat before the film we've had good reports of the take-aways available on North Hill that include vegan options. You're welcome to use the tables and chairs directly outside the lecture theatre for this purpose as long as you clear up afterwards.
Plymouth Radical Cinema brings you free films from around the world that you don't usually find at the multiplex, always interesting, always different, always on the second Tuesday of the month. There's no need to book, just turn up from 7:00 pm. If you like the fact that we exist come along, enjoy the films and tell your friends about us. Our films are free, though we accept donations to bring you better films.
If you know of a film you think would be suitable, we'd like to hear about it.
Future films: In June we're showing Nothing to Hide which is about Big Data and in July Becoming Animal.
