SUMMARY:DALEKS' INVASION EARTH 2150 A.D. (1966) & THE DELIAN MODE (2009)
DESCRIPTION:Double DOCTOR WHO feature plus pre-recorded Q&A from Director Kara Blake\n  \n \nThis November\, it’s 60 years since the birth of the longest-running science fiction series in the universe – DOCTOR WHO. \nTo mark this significant event\, Southampton Film Week will be screening two films in celebration of this remarkable show. \n‘Daleks’ Invasion Earth 2150 A.D.’ directed by Gordon Flemyng in 1966 and newly remastered. \n‘The Delian Mode\,’ a short experimental documentary about the life and work of electronic music pioneer Delia Derbyshire\, best known for her ground-breaking sound treatment of the Doctor Who theme music which has delighted and terrified children in equal measure ever since it was first heard back in 1963. \nTaking place just 10 days before the Doctor Who 60th Anniversary special\, ‘The Star Beast’ which will see the much loved David Tennant returning to the role\, this event will celebrate all things Who while paying homage to one of the show’s most remarkable women – Delia Derbyshire. \nTHE DELIAN MODE\n2009 | Dir. Kara Blake | Documentary/Music | Canada| 25 mins \nDelian Mode with pre-recorded Q&A \n \nThe Delian Mode is a collage of sound and image created in the spirit of Derbyshire’s unique approach to audio creation and manipulation. It illuminates such soundscapes onscreen while paying tribute to a woman whose work has influenced electronic musicians for decades. \nThis screening will be followed by a short pre-recorded Q&A with director Kara Blake\, in conversation with City Eye’s Aaron West\, who will explain her motivations for creating this work and her profound respect for one of electronic music’s unsung heroes – Delia Derbyshire. \n  \nDALEKS’ INVASION EARTH 2150 A.D.\nCert PG | 1966 | Dir. Gordon Flemyng | SciFi/Adventure | UK | 84 mins \n \nThe earth of 2150 A.D. is a desolate and hostile ruin of a planet\, crumbling at the edge of civilisation\, slowly disappearing into the darkness of space. For the future of planet earth now belongs to The Daleks\, a destructive army of alien invaders who have turned humans into cowering slaves. Meanwhile deep within the London Underground a group of resistance freedom fighters are planning an attack. But there’s only one man who could possibly help them succeed in destroying their extra-terrestrial enemies and take back control of planet earth. A man of mystery\, a man of time and space\, a man known only as… The Dr. \n  \n  \n  \n\nhttps://southamptonfilmweek.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Full-Trailer-with-Delian-Mode-1.mp4\n  \nFree tickets for Students – but you must book pre-book and bring your Student ID with you to this screening.

SUMMARY:SFW22: Neptune Frost
DESCRIPTION:Neptune Frost (2021)\nSaturday 19 November 2022 at 7:00pm\nDir. Saul Williams\, Anisia Uzeyman | USA/Rwanda | 1hr 45m | 15| Sci-fi | English subtitles  \nAn intersex African hacker\, a coltan miner and the virtual marvel born as a result of their union.  \nAfro-futurist fantasia Neptune Frost\, is a wondrous\, thrilling sci-fi punk musical from multi-hyphenate\, multidisciplinary artists Saul Williams and Anisia Uzeyman who bring their unique dynamism to the vision of Neptune Frost. It is a sci-fi-punk musical that’s a visually wondrous amalgamation of themes\, ideas\, and songs that they have been exploring in their work\, including on Williams’ 2016 album MartyrLoserKing.  \n \nNeptune Frost takes place in the hilltops of Burundi\, where a group of escaped coltan miners camp in an otherworldly e-waste dump\, they attempt a takeover of the authoritarian regime exploiting the region’s natural resources and its people. When an intersex runaway and an escaped miner find each other through cosmic forces\, their connection sparks glitches within the greater divine circuitry.  \nSet between states of being – past and present\, dream and waking life\, colonised and free\, male and female\, memory and prescience – Neptune Frost is an invigorating and empowering direct download to the cerebral cortex and a call to reclaim technology for progressive political ends.  \n“In a word: Mesmerising. Neptune Frost is truly cinema in poetry\, a visually (and aurally) stunning work of art that feels like it should be on display in a museum.” – feedback from young audience members  \n\nOne of the most unique sci-fi films of recent years\, Neptune Frost is screening at MAST Mayflower Studios on Saturday 19 November. \nThis performance will be relaxed. There is a relaxed attitude to noise and movement\, and a chillout space will be available before\, during and after the show for anyone that needs a quiet space.  \n is run by film charity      Charity Number 1089882

SUMMARY:THE HOST
DESCRIPTION:Dir: Bong Joon-Ho |South Korea | 119 Mins | 15  \nMarrying narrative and visual elements of classic monster movies with his masterful visual style\, tongue-in-cheek humour\, and socially conscious theming\, Bong Joon-Ho’s The Host is popcorn entertainment at its finest.   \nIn the year 2000\, an American military pathologist orders his Korean assistant to dump 200 bottles of formaldehyde down a drain leading into the Han River. Six years later\, this mistake will resurface in the form of a kaiju-like monster\, attacking people who live along the banks of the Han. Half Godzilla\, half An Inconvenient Truth\, Bong Joon-Ho’s The Host is the greatest monster movie in decades.   \nBefore his Oscar Winning parable of class injustice\, Parasite\, Bong Joon-Ho was already well regarded as a masterful director of dense\, yet fundamentally entertaining thrillers. The Host\, released in 2006\, is a further example of Bong Joon-Ho’s innate ability to channel larger contextualising themes into white-knuckle popcorn entertainment.  \n  \nDiscounts and Concessions available through the box office.\n– Access Membership Companion seats 75% discount at all performances.\n– Groups 10+ £2.00 off.\n– Festival ticket offer – get 25% off full-price tickets if you book any 4 events across the two days.

SUMMARY:Blade Runner 2049 with Professor Will Brooker
DESCRIPTION:2017 | Dir Denis Villeneuve | 2:44 | Cert 15   \nLIMITED SPACES REMAINING \nSFW in partnership with Film@Solent presents Blade Runner 2049 (2017) with opening talk from Professor Will Brooker\, discussing his latest work titled ‘The World Is Built on A Wall’: deconstructing Blade Runner 2049. \n“Blade Runner 2049 is a troubling film – and at the time of its release\, it was\, like its predecessor\, commercially unpopular – because it unsettles our expectations and offers no easy answers. This talk engages in depth and detail\, through philosophical theory and political analysis\, with the contradictions and complexities of this ambitious science fiction text.” \nA young blade runner’s discovery of a long-buried secret leads him to track down former blade runner Rick Deckard\, who’s been missing for thirty years. \n \nWill Brooker is a writer and academic\, professor of film and cultural studies at Kingston University and an author of several books of cultural studies dealing with elements of modern pop culture including the BFI Film Classics edition Star Wars (2009)\, Hunting the Dark Knight: Twenty-First Century Batman (2012)\, and The Blade Runner Experience: The Legacy of a Science Fiction Classic (2005). \n  \n is run by film charity      Charity Number 1089882 \nWe are delighted\, with support of our partners\, to present a number of events for free but if you are able to make a donation when purchasing your ticket or attending an event we will be incredibly grateful – and able to sustain City Eye and Southampton Film Week for years to come!  Thank you.
