‘Escapes’ previews highly anticipated film, Layla, for free independent cinema screening in Lincolnshire

Returning this November for its 8th edition, Escapes is joining forces with over 150 independent cinemas across the UK, including in Lincolnshire, to encourage everyone to enjoy an exciting trip to the big screen.

Whether someone that rarely prioritises a trip to the cinema, someone who treasures a visit but only on special occasions, or someone who loves to uncover new experiences, Escapes is on a mission to bring new audiences to the cinema.

Escape’s latest film is Layla, the daring yet tender romance set in and around East London’s iconic drag clubs, exploring the story of the eponymous British-Palestinian drag queen as they embark on a journey of self-discovery.

The highly anticipated release will be previewed across 150 independent cinemas on the evening of Monday 11 November, with more than 15,000 free cinema tickets available. In Linconlshire, cinemas include Playhouse in Louth, Kinema in Woodall Spa, and Loewen in Mablethorpe.

Helping to make cinema more accessible, all Escapes screenings of Layla will be presented with descriptive subtitles on screen.

Continuing its year of free independent film, every month Escapes will announce a new film to preview. Tickets are FREE and available for sign up now via: escapes.cinematik.app
