To mark 80 years since the end of World War II, Eden Court will invite a diverse range of local communities across Inverness and the Highland region to help shape and lead a powerful community project called Cinema Against Fascism. Sparking discussion through a season of thought-provoking films, speaker introductions and community event screenings, they will reflect on what freedom meant then and what it means now – especially in the face of rising hate, division and authoritarianism around the world today.

Working in partnership with organisations deeply embedded in the region – including community cinemas via the BFI Spotlight project, the National Trust for Scotland and the popular German Filmklub – they will draw on existing cultural networks, experience and place-based knowledge to ensure the project feels distinctive to the Highlands and to Eden Court.
