The 68th BFI London Film Festival in partnership with American Express closed on Sunday 20 October with the European premiere of Academy Award winning documentarian Morgan Neville’s Piece by Piece, a vibrant journey through the life of cultural icon Pharrell Williams, all told through the lens of LEGO animation. In addition to Morgan Neville and Pharrell Williams, the event was attended by an exciting array of special guests from the worlds of music, fashion and sport. The Closing Night Gala took place at Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall which returned as the festival’s Headline Gala and Special Presentation venue for a fourth time since its inaugural year in 2021.
