Named after pioneering lesbian filmmaker Dorothy Arzner, The Arzner is London’s first and only LGBTQ+ cinema. Opened on the site that used to house the Kino Cinema in Bermondsey, The Arzner showcases new releases and iconic films that have influenced queer cinema over the years, as well as spotlights underrated or forgotten titles. There’s also the monthly SPECTRA Shorts programme that celebrates queer storytelling from emerging and independent filmmakers.
