Stand Up Cinema: Soylent Green

Price: 
£4

Soylent Green, (Richard Fleischer, 1973). Being shown in association with The British Science Association as part of Science Week, Soylent Green postulates a future where over-population threatens the world and food is in scarce supply. Charlton Heston is the cop investigating a murder that leads to a world-changing discovery. A tiny bit silly in places (scooping people up in big trucks) but with some really affecting moments. The film will be accompanied by a talk organised by the British Science Association, which touches on some of the topics and issues raised.

Stand Up Cinema presents screenings of the best locally made film and video plus rarely seen classics, obscure documentaries, cult independents and overlooked modern gems. Stand Up Cinema is a collaboration between The Rising Sun Arts Centre and Real Time Video. To get your film shown at the next Stand Up Cinema contact Real Time at info@real-time.org.uk
