Join us at the ARC for the first screening event in our CinemARC series.
As part of 2023 Doors Open Day, we’re thrilled to present this special screening of Alfred Hitchcock’s classic film, Rear Window.
From looking out the window of a New York apartment building, to looking up at the tower blocks which are at the centre of the recent changes to Glasgow’s social housing, we will be discussing the significance of communal living and the heritage of shared spaces.
Alongside Rear Window, we will be showing Innes Dunlop’s short film, Save the Wynford, which seeks to raise awareness of the proposed demolition of the Wynford estate. Residents of the Wynford and campaigners to save these much-loved Maryhill flats, will join us in conversation.
