The place
Founded right after the war so that students could pay for their studies, and still run that way: no managers, no owners, just a rota of people young enough to be doing this instead of sleeping. The programme leans arthouse and documentary, and the bar downstairs keeps going long after the credits.
Before you go
Stay for a drink afterwards. Half the point of the place is downstairs.
