For the first time, BTB have partnered with Pendle Social Cinema for a miniature film festival. See one, two or three documentaries and join the discussion around fast fashion and sustainable textiles.
The Nettle Dress [78 minutes] – Textile artist Allan Brown spends seven years making a dress by hand just from the fibre of locally foraged stinging nettles.
True Cost [92 minutes] – The True Cost is a documentary that asks us to consider, who really pays the price for our clothing?
Fashion Reimagined [100 minutes] – Trailblazing fashion designer Amy Powney is on a mission to create a sustainable collection from field to finished garment and transform the way we engage with fashion.

Alongside each screening, Pendle Social Cinema will host Talkaoke, a pop-up talk show where anyone can sit and air their views around the table of chat, coming and going as they please. It’s a brilliant way to explore what people are thinking and discover or even generate new ideas.
Food will be available from Old Fashioned Catering as part of your ticket donation.
