Join us to see director Chaa Ustaoglu’s triple bill at the iconic Prince Charles Cinema, with new releases ‘A Fig Story’ & ‘My Cuppa Tea’!

Campdale’s 5th premiere welcomes you to the Prince Charles Cinema on Sunday 24th November for director Chaa Ustaoglu’s triple bill!

Doors will open at 12:00 and the event will commence sharply at 12:15 with Chaa’s debut short, Precipice (2023), before screening the long-awaited A Fig Story (2024) and My Cuppa Tea (2024). We will conclude the event with a Q&A, before continuing the conversations at a nearby cafe.

Our aim with our Campdale Motion premieres is to showcase our work and development as emerging filmmakers and growing storytellers. We will also launch our next phase as a collective, announce our exciting new projects and seek to meet potential future collaborators. Seats are limited, so make sure to get your tickets soon!

About the films

Precipice follows one man in one room, searching the source of an increasingly disturbing sound. It is the recipient of Future of Film Awards’ Best First Time (short) Director.

A Fig Story follows Adam seeking an unconventional solution for reconciliation when his career demands begin to clash with his morals and growing attractions for his colleague. It will meet its first audience at the Prince Charles Cinema.

My Cuppa Tea was originally crafted for the Straight 8 competition. Filmed on a single Super8mm film cartridge with no retakes or editing, it is about a British woman on her odyssey to obtain milk for her tea. The film has already been garnering awards from multiple festivals, including runner up Best Micro Short at the BIFA-qualifying Brighton Rocks Festival. It will have its first Campdale Motion premiere at the Prince Charles Cinema.

We intend these films to spark important conversations about responsibility, moral integrity, and cultural exchange. We hope you can partake in experiencing them with us.
