How about a visual sample of avant garde films as opposed to the usual Hollywood blockbusters this weekend?
From 11-21 May, head to the National Gallery as it plays host to the long-running European Union Film Festival . This is the festival’s 27th edition which also marks the 60th anniversary of the European Union.
From comedy dramas to book-to-film adaptions, the festival proves to be a cultural fiesta as 27 films from 27 countries across Europe will be presented to viewers.
