Exploding Cinema, the film night that still refuses to die, goes and bothers the ghosts of Victorian horses on the 18th of May with another full show of juicy ripe underground and independent short films.
Come to our rank screening in the dark pocket of Bloomsbury that is the wonderful Horse Hospital to be intrigued and inthralled by the myriad flickering images that make up one of our shows.
