Welcome to Keynsham Film Works
We showcase a mix of indie gems, world cinema, cult classics, and hidden treasures you may have missed or didn’t make it to the mainstream cinemas. Join us for a cinematic experience in the heart of Keynsham where you’re never quite sure what you’re going to get!
Everyone’s welcome, bring your friends and enjoy a drink with the film – if you’re trying us out for the first time (where have you been?) it’s £5 on the door. We screen films to members and visitors on the first Thursday of the month from September to June at The Space – which is above the library. Doors open at 7.10 for a 7.45 start. We can get quite busy and (so far) seats are on a first come first served basis, there’s no booking in advance.
The entrance to The Space is the side door on Temple Street (opposite Iceland) as there is no access via the Library.
Full membership for the year is still £30, cash, card payments or cheques (payable to Keynsham Film Works) can be made on the night, this gives you entry to all 10 films making it £3 per film. You can pay on our website here using paypal if you prefer and save the paperwork 🙂
If you’d like to receive reminders of the next film via email please join the mailing list – we only send a quick email out on the Monday before the film with details and any relevant message (like snow warnings!).
Our next film is:
H IS FOR HAWK
3rd September 2026
After the sudden death of her father, Helen loses herself in the memories of their time birding and exploring the natural world together. The film is based on the memoirs of Helen MacDonald, and details how she saves herself from her grief by a unlikely friendship with a stubborn goshawk named Mabel. She starts training Mabel in the art of falconry, and as she teaches her to hunt and fly free, Helen discovers how deeply she has neglected her own emotions and life. What begins as an act of endurance, transforms into an intimate journey of resilience and healing.
