Beer Film Society

The Beer Film Society was founded in Autumn 2005. With a great deal of help from BFFS, and donations from Beer Parish Council, Devon County Council, Mike Green and several others, the Society was able to obtain basic equipment. The aim then, as now, was to bring a combination of popular and less-mainstream films to the village. Since those early days several different venues in Beer have been used, depending on the type of film. At present, the society shows most of its films at Steamers Restaurant, although very popular films (such as The King's Speech last year) have been shown at the Mariners' Hall. Over the years, the society has used any surplus funds from the showing of films to buy improved quality equipment.

Films will be shown on Mondays at Steamers at 7 for 7.30 unless otherwise stated.

The next films we shall be showing are:

On 28th May, we shall be screening an extra film from 1996 - Fargo (18) This will be preceded by our AGM at 7pm.
On 18th June, The Artist (PG)
On 9th July, Sarah's Key (12A)
On 6th August, Mao's Last Dancer (PG by MPAA)

Membership of Beer Film society costs Ł5 per annum and entrance to each film costs Ł4. The membership list is now full, but non-members may buy tickets on the evening for Ł5 if there is room.
