During the Architecture Festival Picturehouses and
the RIBA presented a national series of film events celebrating the special
relationship between architecture and cinema at some of England’s finest
independent cinemas. Film events include a short pre-film talk from
architectural figures alongside screenings of classic and new
architecture-themed films.At City Screen, York, we presented a cinematic classic in the
form of Fritz Lang's 'Metropolis'.

Before the screening the newly formed York Architectural Association (RIBA York Branch) hosted a drinks reception and an exhibition of the art work produced at the York's Playful Spaces creative workshop earlier in the week.
The two Chairs
of YAA, Charlotte Harrison and Lucy Morris introduced
the work and plans of the York Architectural Association and discussed the
themes in Metropolis to explore the relationship between architecture and
society.
