Join us for a relaxed queer cinema outing at a local independent venue as we come together to watch Layla (15).

The question of how love alters our identity lies at the heart of this debut from one of London’s best-loved drag queens. Amrou Al-Kadhi’s first feature considers the relationship between Palestinian-British drag performer Layla and their white, straightlaced new love interest, Max. Set against the backdrop of Feathers (a larger-than-life fictional queer space threatened by the very real spectre of gentrification), the pair meet when Layla performs an outrageous act at a drab corporate event. Thrown together by fate – and ready meals – their curiosity gives way to full-blown attraction. But Layla wears a dress made of karate belts, and Max lives in a stylish minimalist apartment – their enjoyment of each other is increasingly complicated by urgent questions of difference, forcing both to confront the bittersweet nature of attraction

This is a low-pressure, social trip—come along to connect with others and share in queer storytelling on the big screen. Attendees are responsible for purchasing their own tickets, and exact meeting details will be shared closer to the time.
