Being a Birmingham student puts you in a highly appealing city to live in, and it also makes it incredibly easy to find student accommodation that you can be happy with.

What’s On?
It’s easy to find yourself in front of the television at the end of the day or at the weekend, watching a film or the next episodes of your favourite shows. While this is certainly relaxing, there are much more exciting ways you can watch movies and TV shows, or even freshen-up your viewing routine, especially for Birmingham students.


For those students in Birmingham, The MAC (Midlands Arts Centre) is running a number of very interesting films at their cinema between May and June. This is your opportunity to dive into some really fascinating choices of film, ranging from the edgy to the more exotic, and to get ideas for more things to watch and explore.

On The Edge
What better way to shake-up your regular viewing patterns then heading over to The MAC for the Controversy Season? A line-up of screenings that takes in some of the more provocative examples from TV history, this season sees The MAC presenting some of the most striking films to ever be released, all of them having sparked controversy at some point since their initial production. This season includes the unforgettable A Clockwork Orange (1971), as well as Scum (1979), a depiction of the borstal system in 1970s Britain that was bloody and violent and banned by the BBC.
With selected screenings being accompanied by Q&As or special introductions, this is a chance to see some compelling movies you may not have seen before that are sure to get you thinking.

World Cinema
Why not go further with your cinematic adventure and delve into some of the latest World Cinema offerings. From May to June, you have the opportunity to catch some bold and intriguing movies from around the globe. Check-out the MAC website now for more information!



Birmingham Indian Film Festival
Get to the MAC a little further into June, and you can experience the Birmingham Indian Film Festival (presented by LIFF). The MAC will be showing a diverse collection of films that will be tackling a fascinating range of highly relevant key themes and issues. So why not get down there and take a look?

While You’re There….
Another advantage of being a student in Birmingham is that no matter where you find yourself, there’s a good chance that you will never be too far from something interesting to see and do. And this is certainly true of the MAC. The MAC is located in Cannon Hill Park, Moseley, which is close to various places that might be worth a visit. So, if you make plans to go to the MAC for a screening or anything else that takes your fancy, you could easily opt for another activity close-by and make a day of it.
