Before Glastonbury swallowed it whole, the free party movement was something wilder.

Aaron Trinder's documentary FREE PARTY: A FOLK HISTORY tells the story of the ravers, travellers and sound systems who built a music revolution in squats and fields, and the infamous Castlemorton festival that changed everything.

Screening at the ACMI cinemas7 June 🍿 Tix via the link in bio.

Ever heard of the Vitaphone? It changed movies forever.

Early filmmakers experimented with sound but couldn’t match it perfectly with motion pictures. Vitaphone solved that, creating synchronised playback through a vinyl disc manually linked to a film projector 📽️

The system gained widespread acclaim with DON JUAN (1926), featuring a synced score by the New York Philharmonic 🎻and sound effects. A year later came THE JAZZ SINGER (1927), the first feature to include spoken dialogue.

You may know LEMONADE as Beyoncé's visual album. But director Kahlil Joseph's cut is something else: a film shaped by grief, joy and the creative energy of the Underground Museum in Los Angeles.

Set in Louisiana and carried by music, it moves through memory, betrayal and reclamation toward healing and empowerment. We're bringing the rare Director's Cut to Melbourne for its Australian premiere!

🖤Don't miss it. Screening 4 & 22 June at ACMI.
