Q&A will follow the screening.

By turns, serious war movie and epic adventure, this soulful saga sees Caesar and his followers forced into a deadly conflict with an army of humans led by a ruthless Colonel. Both leaders have to face their darker instincts in a thought-provoking meditation on what it means to be human, and humane. Breathtaking state of the art effects married with powerful performances and a poignant narrative create a measured and timely study of war and intolerance.

NOT PAID FOR BY VES. PLEASE ARRIVE AT LEAST 30 MINUTES EARLY. YOU MUST PRESENT YOUR VES MEMBERSHIP CARD PRIOR TO ENTRY.

Blue Cat Pictures on behalf of Annapurna Pictures and ANZ distributor EOne is delighted to invite VES NZ members and your guest to a special preview screening of Kathryn Bigelow’s DETROIT.

When: Sunday 22 October

Time: 10am start
Location: Roxy Cinema (Cinema 1), 5 Park Road, Miramar, Wellington

RSVP is essential.

RSVP HERE

Synopsis: From director Kathryn Bigelow, and screenwriter Mark Boal, DETROIT is the dramatic true story of a racially motivated crime that took place over one dark night in 1967. Up-and-coming Motown musician, Larry Reed (Algee Smith), six other young African American men and two young white women were terrorized by local police, despite the presence of the State Police, the National Guard, and an African American security guard (John Boyega). Before the sun rose in the motor city, three of the young males were slain in cold blood. Set against the civil unrest of ’67, DETROIT charts the crime and the survivors’ futile search for justice. Larry Reed’s dreams of stardom disappear as he struggles to find a way forward.

DETROIT also stars Will Poulter and Anthony Mackie.

DETROIT is produced by Megan Ellison, p.g.a., Kathryn Bigelow, p.g.a., Matthew Budman, p.g.a., Mark Boal, p.g.a. and Colin Wilson, p.g.a.

Duration: 143 minutes

EOne is releasing the film nationally on 2nd November, 2017.
