The Arzner
LGBT-friendly cinema in Bermondsey, London
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Arzner is a dedicated LGBT-friendly independent cinema and bar in Bermondsey Square, London. It was founded by Simon Burke and Piers Greenlees in 2025 with the aim of creating a cinema dedicated to queer cinema.[1][2] The venue is named after Dorothy Arzner, a lesbian film director who worked in Hollywood in the 1920s through 1940s.[3]
The cinema occupies the premises of the former Kino Bermondsey.[4]
The seventh London Fetish Film Festival is scheduled to be shown at The Arzner in February 2026.[5]
