Absolute Beginners, cert 15, 107 mins
Continuing our selection of films from this year’s Cinema Rediscovered Festival. Set against a backdrop of emerging teen culture and rising racial tension in late 50s London, Colin MacInnes' cult novel is brought to the screen in Julien Temple's exuberant musical adaptation with a who's who cast of music luminaries from David Bowie and Ray Davies to Sade.

Concluding our selection of films from this year’s Cinema Rediscovered Festival. Alan Clarke’s screen adaptation of playwright Andrea Dunbar’s uninhibited portrait of working-class life caused outrage at the time and reset the debate about class and representation on screen. The subject matter - two 15-year-old friends and their sexual relationship with a married man - delivered as defiant comedy divided critical opinion and with the tag line “Thatcher’s Britain with her knickers Down” sparked debates about the film’s politics, representation and morality.
