In Demand – Is Independent Cinema Thriving or Surviving?

In this introductory episode, Tara Judah is joined by Dr. Peter Walsh, co-founder and co-director of South West Silents. Together, they discuss the changing role of independent film exhibition in the UK and how passion can grow into and shape audience development strategies.
