Asteroid City
Sun 17 September at 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
**Check local listings for confirmed screening times**
The latest film from visionary filmmaker Wes Anderson, takes place in a fictional American desert town circa 1955.
The itinerary of a Junior Stargazer/Space Cadet convention (organised to bring together students and parents from across the country for fellowship and scholarly competition) is spectacularly disrupted by world-changing events.
★★★★★ “Wes Anderson returns with one of his most dazzling, rich and playfully self-reflexive films to date, brought to eye-popping life by an all-timer ensemble.” LITTLE WHITE LIES
★★★★★ “In its own offbeat way, Asteroid City is an Anderson patchwork of Cold War paranoia and American family values in all their often hypocritical glory. It is every bit as arch as his best work, while still managing to tug hard on the heartstrings.” INDEPENDENT UK
