With a colourful medley of cartoons, an orphaned squirrel, and mind-blowing science on display there is something for everyone in this family screening.
The BFI National Archive’s Film on Film team presents an animated offering that will give you a chance to follow Rosie’s Walk (1970), attend the Butterfly Ball (1974), groan at The Day of the Terrible Jokes (1986) with Henry’s Cat, and howl at the moon with Little Wolf (1992). Charles and Ray Eames’ Powers of Ten (1977) is a cosmic classroom classic that will take you across the universe and back again, before Squirrel On My Shoulder (1979) offers a heart-warming, real-life story of life on Earth. All the films will be screened from 16mm prints from the BFI National Archive, with an opportunity to experience how film is projected.
