In this episode I speak to London based Film Programmer Philip Ilson. Philip has been programming cinema for over 30 years and in 2004 he co-founded the London Short Film Festival - the UK’s leading short film festival. We talk about film programming, the genesis of the festival and what's in store for this year's programme - taking a deep dive into its themes through music.

In these hour-long conversations, I speak with moving image artists about their work, their creative process, and the music that has shaped it. Each of these artists asks urgent questions about contemporary political conditions and the role of the moving image. We explore these questions, their journey into film and video and the commitment to making meaningful images.

🎙️✨ ¡Bienvenidxs al 22° episodio de Boletín Migrante. En este programa hablaremos de lo que está pasando en nuestras comunidades: la solidaridad de la comunidad negra frente a la violencia y la criminalización, las exigencias de rendición de cuentas en la Comisión Comunitaria para la Seguridad Pública y la Rendición de Cuentas (CCPSA) y la campaña #ApagaElOdio, con @ilehlainat de @Mijente
