Screen Cuba celebrates Cuban cinema, looking at achievements and challenges of the Cuban people through the lenses of their filmmakers since the 1959 revolution, and presenting films rarely screened in the UK.
“Screen Cuba: Films to Change the World” is a collaborative project of the charity Music Fund for Cuba, the Cuba Solidarity Campaign, the Cuban Embassy in the UK and the Cuban Institute of Cinematographic Art and Industry (ICAIC).

After the Bay of Pigs Invasion, a wealthy writer drifts through the streets of Havana after his family flee to Miami. One of the great works of post-revolution Cuban cinema, showing as part of the Screen Cuba 2025 national tour.
Post-revolution social change causes a rift in the household of a working class Cuban family. Controversial upon its release, Pastor Vega’s rarely screened drama is now regarded as a classic of Cuban cinema. Part of Screen Cuba Festival national tour.
Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road. We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We don’t show adverts, just a couple of trailers, so don't be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
