Article: ICO’s Virtual Screening Days for exhibitors to be held from 15-19 March

The first Screening Days of 2021 is to be held over 15–19 March. While it’s digital, the Independent Cinema Office’s aim remains the same: to help cinemas find the best films to serve all their audiences.

Screening Days is an event giving cinema professionals a chance to come together to watch upcoming films and have discussions towards building a better independent cinema scene. Like our December 2020 event, this Screening Days is online only and will offer the best new cinema from around the world, plus sessions to support cinemas in the new reality we find ourselves in.
