Turning Point Screening

What’s on offer?

We will host a screening for local audiences with an in-depth discussion and Q&A with the film’s creators

What’s it about?

From the neglected heritage of the early 1920s British Caribbean, Tony T has crafted TURNING POINT. Drawing together high-profile actors, rising stars and community participants. His use of folk culture and comedy reawakens a hidden age of revival and New Negro rebellion unleashed across the Caribbean after the First World War. Real experiences of Black women and First World War veterans have inspired four dramatic vignettes. Interwoven with archive imagery, text, and rare folk songs. The result is a call to arms: triumphant Black British heritage waits to be celebrated! Creators Tony T and Rebecca will participate in a Q&A with the audience following the screening.
