As part of the GIFF, in partnership with HEAD, this special conference will celebrate the remarkable career of British filmmaker Stephen Frears. Revealed by My Beautiful Laundrette and Prick Up Your Ears, Frears has continually challenged social norms and explored the lives of those on the margins, from Dirty Pretty Things to The Queen. Recipient of the Film & Beyond Award for his rich and varied body of work blending literature, politics, and reality, Frears will discuss his inspiring career and share his unique perspective on British society and culture.
