Self Selects - Will Self's Future Cities Cinema
Please note : this season finished in Nov 2015
As part of author Will Self’s contribution to the Festival of the Future City we asked him to curate a season of films which explore the city in cinema. His selection reveals a distinctly dystopian perspective from the technologically enslaved modernity of Fritz Lang’s Metropolis (Tue 3 Nov 18:00) to the surreal transgressions of Mullholland Drive (Tue 14 Nov 18:00), the psycho-sexual provocations of Crash (Tue 10 Nov 18:00) to the discomfiting outrage of Naked (Tue 17 Nov 18:00).
Tickets: £4.50 - £9.00
As part of the festival Will Self will also be discussing the work of author JG Ballard and his contribution to literature and architectural theory (Thu 19 Nov 18:00) as well as leading a walking tour of Bristol's harbourside (Thu 19 Nov 14:00) where he'll examine the place, the culture and Bristol's architecture.
