Spotlight on Imperfect Cinema

Imperfect Cinema is a socially engaged collective for film, sound and moving image. They’ve produced and facilitated the creation of over 700 films, micro-cinema events, festivals, symposia and screenings, and produced and facilitated filmmaking workshops and screenings across the UK and internationally. They’ve also produced 'RE/POSIT/ORY', the new five-screen film currently showing on the screens in The Box’s Media Lab gallery, which examines the role of the archive. We caught up with co-founders Allister and Dan to ask them some questions.
