About this event

My Beautiful Laundrette follows the fortunes of handsome young Omar who, together with his white tenderness and passion, blossoms into love. Enva Lewis on why she chose My Beautiful Laundrette - ‘The 80s has always been my favourite decade for film. There’s something so heavily stylised but also disgustingly gritty about it. This film is a beautiful example of that and it was unlike anything I’d ever seen before.’ Screening as part of Rip It Up, a UK-wide film season supported by the National Lottery and BFI Film Audience Network.
