Our Social Space

The Flicks Hut community cinema

Monday Movies at The Flicks Hut

The Flicks Hut is a volunteer-led community cinema created by Our Social Space, offering a relaxed, welcoming place to watch films together and spend time in conversation.

 

Rather than simply screening popular releases, we curate films that invite reflection, celebrate culture and creativity, and encourage connection. Some people stay for a chat afterwards, others simply enjoy the film and head home — both are equally welcome. There's never any pressure to join the conversation; simply come along and enjoy the experience.

 

Stories Rooted in Rhythm

Our 2026/27 season, Stories Rooted in Rhythm, explores music, movement, identity and community through eleven carefully selected films.

 

From jazz and blues to civil rights, migration and belonging, the season celebrates the people, places and stories that have shaped modern culture. Many of the films explore the creativity and influence of African American communities, whose music and social dances continue to inspire the classes and activities we deliver at Our Social Space today.

 

Each screening has its own theme, while together they form a season that celebrates the power of film to bring people together through shared stories.

 

Monday Movies at The Flicks Hut: Stories Rooted in Rhythm is supported by Film Hub Northern Ireland through the BFI Film Audience Network, awarding National Lottery funding on behalf of the British Film Institute.

 

What to Expect

A relaxed and inclusive cinema experience with comfortable seating, refreshments available, and optional conversation before or after the screening.

 

Whether you'd like to discuss the film or simply enjoy an evening at the cinema, you'll receive a warm welcome.

 

Screenings by Request

Alongside our public programme, The Flicks Hut also partners with community groups, schools, colleges and organisations to deliver bespoke film screenings.
