About Keswick Film Club

Keswick Film Club began life in 1998 with the intention of bringing the best of World Cinema to Keswick. Since then it has won many awards from the British Federation of Film Societies including Best Programme four times, and Best Website. In 2006 we were Film Society of the Year. Audiences combine many of our 250+ members, and visitors are very welcome.

Time & Screenings

KFC has two 'seasons', each with its own brochure available around Keswick and area (e.g. T.I.C., Library, Booths) or posted to members.

'Autumn Season' - September to December
'Spring Season' - January to April

Screenings begin with a short introduction, followed, time allowing, by a short film. Film notes are available prior to screenings or on the club website, and we have a voting system - give the film a star rating out of five.

The Alhambra Cinema, St. John's Street, Keswick, North Lake District. Continue up the hill from the top of the Market Square and keep going uphill for 200 metres.
