Introducing Pelé Rocket! 🚀🎬

A South Wales / West Midlands based film production company by @redpwade, that strives to create authentic stories and support under represented talent.

[Pelé Rocket @PeleRocket]

We absolutely loved screening A Glass House with @StirchleyCinema and what a gorgeous feature to be paired with 💙

P.S. we second the suggestions of Kung Fu Hustle and Dune 1984!

[Stirchley Open Cinema @StirchleyCinema]

Lovely to see you all at our Friday Feature ALL WE IMAGINE AS LIGHT. We had so much fun that our projector overheated! Thanks to @PeleRocket for sharing #AGlassHouse with us and thank you Stirchley, for your suggestions on what to show next. Noted 😉

Red was inspired to spotlight this library by Sarah from #BrumLovesLibraries and local author #KieranGoddard’s writing for @BrumLibraryZine by @MissLizBerry & #oflynnindustries. Featuring adopted Brummie photographer, Nick.

“Anglo-saxon for Shard End is ‘atte Sherd’ or ‘at the gap’ – a fitting name for the chasm Bham's bankruptcy has created in our community. Some councillors fought, but the cuts passed. With the only option now being Judicial Review, I long for my art to aid in the next steps.”

Featuring Mary, John, and Stuart from #FriendsofNorthfieldLibrary, and library user Katie.

“My childhood library, a place of memories and fire. Narrowly escaping the full blaze of funding cuts, operating for only 28 hours a week is an unsustainable slow burn. I hope this moving collage ignites a passion in others to continue the fight for these vital community spaces.”

About making their films, Red told us:

“From masonic hall to free library, Harborne is rich in history and as tough as its nail makers. One of only four Birmingham libraries facing relocation, it needs our fight. I hope my art hammers home the message: our library stays.”

[Pelé Rocket @PeleRocket]

“I was inspired to highlight this library by Hector Pinkney MBE (aka #MrHandsworth aka #CaptainBoogie), Deloras Pinkney, @shuranjeetsingh, and Andrea Lester. Featuring local library lover, Rev Dr Carver.”

About the making of their films, Red told us:

“Handsworth knows how to fight for its own. Now, we must. With its library hours slashed to a mere 28 a week, the community is being underserved. I hope this moving collage inspires others to rise up and demand a better Birmingham.”

"It's a gut punch of a film.... a stunning achievement audiences should seek out & one that says more in its running time than some films manage in 120 minutes" ★★★★½
