Scala!!!

Synopsis

The incredibly strange story of the world’s wildest cinema, and how it influenced a generation of weirdos and misfits.

In Britain’s post-punk Thatcher years, London’s infamous and legendary Scala cinema showed a diverse range of films, from high art to cult classics, sexploitation, horror, Kung-Fu and LGBTQIA+.

Nudging boundaries of convention, it became an inspiration for future famous creatives.

With interviews from nearly 50 contributors, previously unseen archive footage and film clips, SCALA!!! is an anarchic, uproarious documentary telling the riotous inside story of the cinema, with an original soundtrack by celebrated musician Barry Adamson.
