You could also subclass ChangeList and override the url_for_result() method to customise change urls, (learned from another answer), e.g.:

from django.contrib.admin.views.main import ChangeList

class FooChangeList(ChangeList):
    def url_for_result(self, obj):
        return '/foos/foo/{obj.pk}/'

class FooAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    def get_changelist(self, request, **kwargs):
        return FooChangeList

Adapted example for the question:

from django.contrib.admin.views.main import ChangeList
from django.urls import reverse

class FilmAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    def get_changelist(self, request, **kwargs):
        class FilmChangeList(ChangeList):
            def url_for_result(self, obj):
                return reverse('admin:events_event_change', args=(obj.pk, ))
        return FilmChangeList
