Never Seen It Film Club: Tower

The Never Seen It Film Club is a little different, with discussions and events catered to our members.

Our films are shown in the main space of Accidental Theatre, where we throw out normal seating conventions and get comfortable, so come along to enjoy some classic big-screen epics, away from the distractions of home & phones, and connect with your fellow film buffs.

This is designed as a subscription membership as an experiment in building a community around exciting events and finding new ways to support Accidental the arts and artists. Your membership supports this programme directly and allows it to grow.

Payments are automatic after first sign-up and subscriptions are rolling but can be changed via your account here.

(dates and times subject to change, members and information will be updated ASAP)

This season, Never Seen It Film Club explores six masterpieces crafted explicitly for adult audiences. These films use the unique visual language of animation to tackle themes that live-action often struggles to capture: politics, memory, war, trauma, and resistance.

From the hand-drawn rebellion of Wolfwalkers to the stark, rotoscoped tension of Tower, our lineup proves that animation is a powerful tool for complex storytelling. We’ll journey through the streets of revolutionary Tehran in Persepolis, witness the resilience of childhood in The Breadwinner, navigate the dystopian charm of Wes Anderson’s Isle of Dogs, and face the devastating emotional honesty of The Plague Dogs.

Whether you’re a long-time fan or a skeptic who thinks animation "isn't for you," we invite you to join us for a season of films that are often discussed, but rarely seen on the big screen.

Each monthly screening is followed by an informal, welcoming discussion. No film degree required, just a curiosity and willingness to share your perspective!
