Reel Femme returns with its eleventh instalment of female filmmaking at DINA this June – this time, it's a Migration Matters special. Each event has a different theme, and Reel Femme #11 will showcase personal accounts of migration told through a variety of short films by self-identifying women and non binary filmmakers.

The evening is an intimate affair, with drinks served round candle-lit tables. The masterminds behind Reel Femme – or Zoe Kinross and Jenny Richards, as they are usually known – curate a programme of outstanding film based on different themes but always created by female filmmakers. Previous nights have included international animations and creative pieces from the likes of Sheffield heroes Warp Film.

There'll also be a stall from Minnow Books, a Sheffield pop-up shop selling books by women writers and indie publishers.
