The New Directors Competition at LIFF 2022 includes UK Premieres of remarkable feature films from eight first or second-time filmmakers, six of whom are women.

We love short films at LIFF and we have a whole programme section dedicated to them. This year’s Leeds Short Film Awards features 120 shorts from 50 countries across seven competitions, with 33 UK Premieres, 4 European Premieres, and 9 World Premieres. Each competition has a jury and the winning films will be announced and screened on 13 November at Howard Assembly Room.

 

 

 

 

LIFF 2022 Juries

 

We have seven juries at LIFF 2022 for the New Directors Competition and Leeds Short Film Awards, with a total of 21 people including directors, animators, producers, programmers, and film critics. Most of the jurors will be in Leeds during our main competition period from 11 to 13 November and you can view who is on the juries in the link below,

We are welcoming many film cast and crew members to LIFF 2022 for screenings of their features and shorts. There will be several Q&As after screenings of features, including with the lead actress of Pamfir and the directors of Everybody Loves Jeanne, Karaoke, Medusa Deluxe, and We Might As Well Be Dead. We’re also presenting panels and talks as part of the LIFF 2022 Spotlight programmes.  

 

 

 

 

LIFF 2022 Audience Awards

 

You can give a star rating to every feature film you watch during LIFF 2022 and all ratings will count towards the audience awards which are announced at 11pm on 17 November after the last screenings have finished. This year we have brought back rating slips, instead of using the online system from last year, and they will be handed out by volunteers as you go into screenings.

LIFF 2022 Lounge at The Light

We received customer feedback last year about the lack of a waiting area at Vue in The Light for between film screenings. This year we have created a small waiting lounge with seating at The Light and it is located next to the top of the escalators that lead to the first level of Vue. We hope this will be convenient for customers seeing two, three, four or even five films a day at Vue.

 

 

 

LIFF 2022 at Cottage Road Cinema

 

We love Cottage Road Cinema in Headingley, it’s a historic cinema tardis with a small façade and a giant auditorium. We extend our programming at Cottage Road for LIFF 2022 with two of the most acclaimed films of the year in Official Selection – Alcarràs and Close – and four highlights from Fanomenon – Anime Supremacy!, Fast & Feel Love, Goodbye, Don Glees!, and Project Wolf Hunting.

UK Premiere of Carlos Conceição’s stunning Tommy Guns at LIFF 2022

 

Angolan-born Portuguese filmmaker Carlos Conceição is a thrilling new talent to watch and his third feature is a dark, powerful, and breathtaking exploration of war, fear, and tyranny. Receiving its UK Premiere at LIFF 2022, Tommy Guns is set in Angola in 1974 as Portuguese colonists flee and nationalists advance, and it tells the stories of a tribal girl and an isolated squad of soldiers.

To ensure that you get the best Domino experience possible we've decided to implement a few changes.

We will now be charging £4 entry on a Thursday night,  £2 for students.

Secondly, we're reducing the entry fee on Fridays and Saturdays from 6-7pm to just £4, get in early and you get 3 live acts and a Dj for half our standard price.

Thirdly, You spoke and we listened, we are extending our live music times to now finish at 1 am on both a Friday and Saturday night.

You can rest assured that every penny given at the door goes back to the musicians, on our last count we'd contributed over £600'000 to live music in Leeds.

Thanks to everyone who has supported the Domino since day one, we love you guys.

THIS WEEK'S BREAK-EVEN LIQUID

 

Glendronach 21 Year Old Parliament

This 21 year old from Glendronach was released in 2011, and aged in a mix of sherry casks (Oloroso and sweet Pedro Ximenez dessert sherry). The result is really very good indeed.

Interestingly enough, this whisky has no political associations. It is, in fact, named "Parliament" after the collective term for a group of rooks - and there is a Parliament of Rooks living in the trees near GlenDronach...

This stuff is unbelievably rare, so raise your glass to the fine people of Latitude Wine and Liquor Merchant for sourcing this for us!

Usual price £33.93
Our Price £7.56
 

Cheers!

Coming This Week



 

FESTIVE FUN FROM THE PIECE HALL

We're blowing away the cobwebs and getting ready for a big delivery of Christmas spirit here at The Piece Hall.

A vintage carousel and a brand new Christmas tree are heading to the courtyard to create a real festive feel ahead of our Winter Makers Market.

We're welcoming a Gl-ice rink alongside our ever popular Spiegeltent which has dozens of outstanding shows, performances and workshops. Tickets are onsale now!

 

 

Science like you have never seen it before with exploding elephant’s toothpaste, vortex-generating dustbins and even howling jelly babies!

 

 

 

Join artist Samantha Yates for a Tiffany-style glass making workshop to create your own festive decoration. Refreshments included.

 

 

 

This mind blowing show from Britain’s Got Talent finalist and West End star Ben Hart uses the simplest of props, and the minds of the audience to conjure an altogether new kind of magic.

 

 

 

Pop your headphones on and pick a channel for some uncoordinated dancing to the very best party tunes around, with everything from pop and rock to dance, Christmas party classics.

 

 

 

With Hollywood stars and catchy songs this classic love story featuring the iconic song White Christmas is one of the best holiday movies of all time.

 

 

A sensational festive soirée featuring comics, singers, acrobats, burlesque dancers and other wildly entertaining variety performers from the global scene.

 

 

 

Join maker Kim Searle and learn how to use geometric and recycled moulds to create a unique Jesmonite plant pot that will make the ideal Christmas gift. 

 

 

 

Described by BBC6 Music’s Steve Lamacq as swaggering electro indie rock, they appeal to audiences who still have a profound love of guitar music, with nods to New Order, U2 and the Britpop era.

 

 

 

Celebrity chef and Hairy Biker Si King leads this superb 11 piece band playing their own special blend of Funk, Rock, Blues and Disco. The perfect soundtrack for parties and good times.

 

 

 

Nominated for five Oscars and hailed as one of the greatest of all time, if you've never seen it, why not? If you have, you'll want to enjoy this classic again.
