Additional Information

Join us for the Opening Night of the 20th Anniversary I Will Tell International Film Festival, an unforgettable evening of film, music and celebration in the heart of Knightsbridge.

The evening features a special UK PREMIERE screening and Q&A of SARAH'S OIL

Based on an extraordinary true story, Sarah’s Oil follows Sarah Rector, an eleven-year-old Black girl living in early twentieth-century Oklahoma who believes there is oil beneath the seemingly barren land allotted to her. When her conviction proves right, Sarah’s sudden fortune attracts powerful figures determined to take control of it. With courage, faith and the support of her family and unexpected allies, she fights to protect what is rightfully hers—and becomes one of America’s first Black female millionaires.

To mark 20 years of I Will Tell, Opening Night will also feature very special live performances from The Kingdom Choir, internationally acclaimed following their unforgettable performance at the wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Film. Music. An extraordinary true story. And the beginning of eight unforgettable days celebrating 20 years of I Will Tell.
