This event is covered by the Feature Film Pass and the Flatpass. You can also buy an individual ticket for this event.
If you were born in the last century, there is a strong chance you've encountered a video recorder, or even taped your favourite show over some family memories. This is what happens to 12 year-old Ralph in the simple but clever starting point of VHYes. This first feature by Jack Henry Robbins (whose shorts Hot Winter and Painting With Joan have screened at Flatpack) is a love letter to the 80s, a comedy shot entirely on VHS that hops from absurd home shopping clips to censored pornography to bizarre antiques shows. Parodying the worst of cable TV with a genuine affection, the film is hilariously silly on the surface but its crazy mashup may hide a deeper meaning...
This film is only available to viewers in the UK and Northern Ireland.
