Friday 22 July, 8pm (doors 7.30pm)

Join the London Sinfonietta for the world premiere showing of a new film in London Sinfonietta's new Untold Stories series, ANIL SOOD by Alys Scott-Hawkins and Benjamin Oliver.

The film, accompanied by Benjamin's score A-Listers, tells the story of Southampton local Anil Sood. Anil is well-known in Southampton for running a dance music record shop and drum'n'bass events in the 1990s and 2000s. Through an interview Anil tells the stories of highs and lows; most recently having to close his latest business during the pandemic. The film brings together Benjamin's piece A-Listers, archive material, interview footage and animation to interpret Anil's story.

In this unique event, Benjamin and Alys will come together to discuss the film, alongside live performances of new music and live drawing by Alys Scott-Hawkins.
