The Programme for this year’s BFI London Film Festival has been announced and, as usual, its vast selection of over 240 films becomes a treasure trove for cinephiles of all kinds and persuasions. As we did the last two years, our blog will be covering the festival, which runs from the 4th to the 15th of October, bringing you all the excitement, tips, news and reviews that we can pack in.
As it is our custom, we begin this year’s coverage taking a look at what the festival has to offer to music aficionados. On this edition, there isn’t a Sonic strand anymore. Music titles are now part of the brand new Create strand instead, dedicated to the interaction between film and other artistic disciplines. Good news is that, despite not having an specific area any longer, the festival features so many interesting music-related works that we may not have time to miss it. To help you sample the sounds of most of those artists, check the Youtube and Spotify playlists we’ve also made featuring the LFF’s 2017 sonic highlights. Hope you enjoy it!
