For Sunday’s ticketed film event:
3.30pm - Doors
4pm - THE GAME film screening
Late Summer 1993.
After stealing a stash of money and drugs, aging raver David (Marc Bessant) crashes his car deep in the woods - trapped in the wreckage, injured and helpless, he hangs suspended between life and death.
When a mysterious poacher (Jason Williamson) discovers him, no rescue comes, only a watchful, unsettling presence that seems intent on letting nature finish the job.
As the hours stretch and the elements close in, a tense and claustrophobic battle of wills, and wits, unfolds - where survival hinges on outlasting both the wilderness and the predator at its edge.
Directed by John Minton and co-written and produced by Geoff Barrow.
After the film, John Minton and Geoff Barrow will both be joining us for an in-person Q&A.
And don’t forget to book your Sunday roast while you’re here - you can book these on the Rockaway website!
Grab your tickets before the event and pay less than on the door! Under 18’s to be accompanied by an adult, please note the film is a 15.
