Calling all film buffs, cinema lovers and movie fans!

Molly Manning Walker’s startlingly frank, stylish debut follows three teenage girls on a rites-of-passage holiday.

Shy Tara (Mia McKenna-Bruce) and her more confident friends are seeking drinks, sun and sex at a Cretan resort. But when a night of hedonism turns sour, she starts to question her experiences, her friendships and her future, even as the partying continues around her. Powerful, evocative and unsentimental, How to Have Sex is a tremendous calling card for both Manning Walker and the award-winning McKenna-Bruce.

Post-screening Panel discussion

We're delighted to be joined by the film's Intimacy Coordinator Jen Odell whose film and TV work includes Dune Part 2 and 3, Sex Education series 2 and 3, and Black Mirror.
