REWIND through 40 years of Cambridge Film Festival.

We're pleased to announce the (almost) complete lineup for CFF Rewind, the brand new season showcasing some of the great films from past Cambridge Film Festivals.


Hot on the heels of launch titles RAFIKI and DEAD CAT we present eight more highlights which will be screening monthly through to October.


Starting later this month we have 1984's PARIS, TEXAS and 2016's LETTERS FROM BAGHDAD, June brings a cult classic with a star making performance from Vincent Cassel, LA HAINE.


July is Camera Catalonia month with a rewind to CFF32 for BLACK BREAD (more Catalan titles to be added soon) while Festival favourite Lynne Ramsay is once again in focus in August with the powerful YOU WERE NEVER REALLY HERE.


Impossible projects are the focus in September with the fascinating documentary AN IMPOSSIBLE PROJECT and the Werner Herzog masterpiece FITZCARRALDO taking centre stage.


We cap off CFF Rewind in October with Andrey Zvyagintsev's LOVELESS.
