About Attack the Block:
If you liked Shaun of the Dead, you’ll love this fast, funny film as it pits an inner city teen gang against an invasion of aliens, turning a London housing estate into a sci-fi playground. It’s garnered an impressive list of awards for an indie SF flick, including Audience Award for Best Narrative Feature at the Los Angeles Film Festival and the Audience Award for Best Film (Midnights) at SXSW 2011. It also received Special Mention at the 2011 Black Film Critics Circle Awards, which noted that “Attack The Block is a genre film that defies a number of conventions, not only by having a primarily black cast but portraying each character with a dignity seldom seen on screen and even more rarely in a science-fiction film.”
No need to RSVP – seating is limited, and first come, first seated.
