ICA is closed from the 30 May – 3 June inclusive.
Join us for a special one-off screening featuring the shortlisted filmmakers of The Arts Foundation Futures Awards 2025 for Film: Luna Carmoon, Naqqash Khalid, Tina Pasotra and Fridtjof Ryder.
These powerful new contemporary filmmakers will present and discuss their compelling work in conversation with a special guest.
Selected by industry figures and independent award jury members: Claudia Yusef, Commissioning Executive, BBC Film; Peter Suschitzky, Cinematographer and Photographer; and Joanna Hogg, Director and Screenwriter who said:
“What excites me as a creative is an artist that has places to go, and wants to delve into themselves through their art. This is what makes the Arts Foundation Futures Awards so special, it facilitates space for young independent practitioners to experiment and take risks. All the work of the shortlisted filmmakers, Luna Carmoon, Naqqash Khalid, Tina Pasotra and Fridtjof Ryder have a palpable and infectious energy. I am hugely excited to follow their respective journeys in film and see what they do next.”
