SXSW London: Anna Bogutskaya On Curating The Inaugural Film Programme, Embracing An International Vision & Platforming Genre Filmmaking
SXSW’s inaugural London edition opens next month (2-7 June) with a diverse lineup of tech, music, and film events mounted across dozens of venues in the bustling Shoreditch area of East London.
The festival’s centerpiece film is Amazon’s crime-comedy Deep Cover, starring Bryce Dallas Howard, Orlando Bloom, Nick Mohammed, and Sean Bean. Mike Flanagan’s Tom Hiddleston starrer The Life of Chuck has been set as the closing film. In between, the festival will deliver a robust programme of international titles like Love & Rage: Munroe Bergdorf, a documentary feature on the British trans activist, and the Eminem-produced Stan from Steve Leckart. Idris Elba, Efe Cakarel, Deepak Chopra, Katherine Ryan, Wyclef Jean, Tems, Jenn Nkiru, Jean-Michel Jarre, and Joe Wicks are also among the names set for the event.
