Celebrating 20 Years of “Everything” and 50 Years of Ray Winstone: Special Screening at Kandu Arts Reel Film Festival

Join an unforgettable evening at the Astoria Reel Cinema in Chippenham on June 7th at 8:00 PM as we celebrate the 20th anniversary of the acclaimed Kandu Arts for Sustainable Development produced film “Everything” (2004), starring Ray Winstone and Jan Graveson. This special screening is part of the Kandu Arts Reel Film Festival, and tickets are available for £5.99 both online and at the door.

Co-produced by Ed Deedigan of Kandu Arts, with musical contributions by Damon Albarn, “Everything” was created to raise awareness of Kandu Arts’ work, particularly with women involved in the sex industry. The film features real locations in Chippenham and involved local young people, including those in care, offering them unique opportunities in film and music production. A highlight of this initiative was the re-recording of the song “Tender” at Damon Albarn’s London studio, featuring Ray and Lois Winstone alongside two Kandu Arts looked-after young people, providing them with a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

To mark this milestone, the event will also honour Ray Winstone’s remarkable 50-year career in the film industry. The evening will include a special Q&A session with Ed Deedigan of Kandu Arts, providing unique insights into the making of the film and its impact.

The festivities will commence at 7:15 PM with the one-off screening of the 50th Anniversary of the Chippenham Folk Festival Documentary, produced by Kandu Arts. Entry to the documentary is by donation.

At 8:00 PM, the big screen will come alive with “Everything”, a film that offers a realistic portrayal of a sex worker’s life and her interactions with Richard, a deeply troubled character played by Ray Winstone. The film has been praised for its intense and intelligent storytelling, captivating performances, and authentic settings. Earlier in the day, young filmmakers from Wiltshire College and beyond will present their new films to an invited audience. Renowned film and music producer Neville Farmer will judge the young filmmakers’ entries and attend the evening screening of “Everything”.
