PRIDE 6: Short film showcase

Friday 13th June 2025 - 7.30pm

TICKETS: £7*

Film screening evening to celebrate PRIDE month

Join the Exit 6 team for an evening showcasing some of their favourite short films celebrating stories from and about the LGBTQIA+ community, all which have featured in the Exit 6 film festival line up of previous years.

Exit 6 Film Festival is a vibrant celebration of independent cinema set in the heart of Basingstoke. Every September, we curate an all-day diverse programme of short films from highly talented UK and international filmmakers, many of whom have gone on to stellar careers in the industry.

Ahead of the 10th edition of Exit 6 at the Vue Basingstoke in September 2025, we’re hosting a series of themed showcase evenings featuring films from years gone by, so you can get a flavour of how amazing the Exit 6 Film Festival selection is every year, and we can enjoy watching them all over again!

A wonderful way to celebrate the diverse spectrum of the queer experience with a fabulous evening of independent short films made by the stars of the future!

Sisak

Set in the fast-paced environs of the bustling Mumbai local trains, Sisak details a wordless romance that develops slowly and intoxicatingly, nestled in the silences and quiet comforts of the end-of-day train journeys between two men.

Rejoyce!

After the death of her husband, Winifred Tyler, an elderly vicar’s wife, unearths a book of erotic fiction she wrote in her youth.
A bittersweet, comedy-drama about discovering a life not lived, once the person with whom you were inseparable has gone.

Directed by David Ledger (2024)
