THE late night cinema will be back in the Amphitheatre celebrating ‘Bestival’s Summer of Love’ theme.

Programmers from Jersey’s Branchage Film Festival and London Short Film Festival have artfully selected nightly double bills under the banner of ‘Peace, Love & Harmonies’.

Upping the motion picture magic through the weekend, London Short Film Festival-selected short films will play each night in between the main features, and there will also be live pre-screening music from Brightonian folk troubadour Ben Parker, as well as plenty of cinema snacks and a bar.

Rob da Bank says: “Even though we’ve been doing it for years, I’m still totally amazed by how fantastic it is to wander into the Ambient Forest and chance upon a brilliant little cinema showing loads of ace films.

“This year our Films in the Forest crew have done us proud, showcasing our Summer of Love theme in all its splendour, especially with the inspirational Woodstock, and the scintillating Searching for Sugarman.

“So throw on your finest fancy dress and get down with us at the pictures”.

Films in the Forest kicks off on Friday with a double bill celebrating peace, tolerance and political activism, featuring a look at the granddaddy of all music festivals, Woodstock, and the extraordinary story of how two wholly different communities come together for a common cause in Pride.

Bestival is at Robin Hood, Isle of Wight September 10-13.
