BFA FILM NIGHTS: THE WOMAN KING

  • Everyman Canary Wharf Crossrail Place London, England, E14 5AR United Kingdom (map)

It’s now Autumn, the weather is colder, the nights are drawing in and it’s also Black History Month! In celebration of Black History Month this year, BFA is hosting a film night get-together at the Canary Wharf Everyman Cinema to watch highly acclaimed ‘The Woman King’.

Starring Viola Davis, Lashana Lynch and Thuso Mbedu, The Woman King is the remarkable story of the Agojie, the all-female unit of warriors who protected the African Kingdom of Dahomey in the 1800s with skills and a fierceness unlike anything the world has ever seen. Inspired by true events, The Woman King follows the emotionally epic journey of General Nanisca (Oscar®-winner Viola Davis) as she trains the next generation of recruits and readies them for battle against an enemy determined to destroy their way of life. However some things are worth fighting for….

Join us for a chilled cosy evening at the cinema watching an epic story played by an outstanding black cast (we love to see it)!

Tickets per person: £19.60 - available to buy now via our shop. These tickets are limited so don’t delay!

We look forward to seeing you there at our first BFA Film Night.
