Welcome to The Portsmouth Film Society's website. The society shows the best in world cinema, documentary, independent film, animation and classic movies. Members see great films in a social environment, and meet and chat about movies with other film fans, and gives you the chance to watch great films that you might not otherwise get a chance to see.
Our Spring 2013 programme continues our Mobile Cinema project, with support from Creative England, allowing us to create events in new venues across the city. From April we will be screening films at community centres across Portsmouth and Southsea. Check out our Pop Up Cinema page for more information. Also check out our Open Air Cinema tour.
