Curated by Site Gallery’s Creative Producers, Stories We Carry is a short film programme about different black stories across the UK.
These films are vessels of memory, music, of family and friction, of joy and justice. They trace the contours of Black Britain through intimate portraits and tender truths. Each screening is an invitation to witness, reflect and feel the weight and wonder of narratives we inherit and create.
This screening is a collaboration between Site Gallery's Creative Producers and Showroom Community for Black History Month, giving local, care-experienced young people a public platform to develop and showcase their skills.
All tickets £5: Tickets to all events in our Black History Month 2026 programme are just £5.
