CenterFrame has had its first Live Event!

Last week, CenterFrame held its first live event, in partnership with the UK Film Festival - and it was b***dy awesome!

It was four days filled with fabulous shorts, documentaries and features, expertly curated by the UKFF team, and beautifully showcased at two very different, but equally fabulous, London venues: the intimate and bohemian Close-Up Cinema in Shoreditch, and the swanky Soho Hotel Cinema in, well, Soho.

On the closing night on Saturday CenterFrame was honoured to present 12 well-earned prizes to the festival’s talented winners.

It was an informal, easy-going ceremony (pics and clips can be found HERE), followed by raucous mingling & cocktails at the hotel’s excellent bar (we wish you could have all been there!)

The film selection was truly magnificent, but some films stood out even amongst that illustrious list;
