Horace Ové’s ‘Pressure’ Film Screening + Q&A

Tickets will be available soon — check back here for updates or follow Love Camden on Instagram for announcement.

A cinematic milestone. The first Black British feature film, beautifully restored by the BFI National Archive and The Film Foundation in 4k.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A reflecting on its legacy and relevance today.

A groundbreaking and authentic exploration of the anxieties of an emerging second-generation of West Indians in Britain, Pressure (1975) is a significant title in the history of British Cinema, and remains as relevant now, almost 50 years on, as it ever was — with its themes of police corruption, discrimination and employment on an individual and institutional level.
