Egyptian Theatre says…

At the height of the '60s avant-garde art scene, London was one of the world's most progressive cities for visionary filmmakers. A big reason was the London Film-Makers' Co-Operative, which, in 1966, launched an innovative tripartite approach: it would facilitate the production, distribution, and screening of experimental films. Tonight's program, presented by LA Filmforum and curated by film scholar Mark Webber, features a dozen short films made between 1970 and 1974 — the cream of the crop from the LFC archives. Expect cheeky mod style and a dash of London brio as New Wave cinema explores its roots.
