They had no idea that their project would lead to the most exhilarating and unsettling months of their lives. A reality thriller that is a shocking product of our times, Catfish is a riveting story of love, deception and grace within a labyrinth of online intrigue.

The film was highly controversial when it came out and its veracity has been questioned ever since, so there's some interesting debate online to read. The Guardian has written a number of interesting articles reviewing the film and debating its merits

All the films start at 8pm prompt. The bar open from 7pm. This month there will be a collection bucket to raise money for STEPS charity.

Clair Titley, a documentary filmmaker, who is organising the events says: "I actually intended to start this night a year ago because I just felt that in order to see feature documentaries or screenings outside of mainstream cinema you often had to travel to Bristol. But I then got a Channel 4 commission and became pregnant at the same time and it seemed a bit much to take on so I postponed it until now.

Clair dipped her toe in the water a few days after the Olympic opening ceremony and showed Town of Runners which was a great success, hence the new series of bi-monthly events.

Clair says she can show the films for free thanks to sponsors McKenzie Wealth Management.
