The Survivalist. A post apocalyptic love story?

The Survivalist was director Stephen Fingleton’s first feature length film. A taut, breathtaking thriller, beautifully realized by cinematographer Damien Elliot. I have been in love with this movie for some time now and it seemed like a perfect vehicle to jump back towards the present after our two week excursion into eighties cinema. Good call! Our NewScreen “gang” was enthralled, and I don’t think I’d be wrong to assume that most are still thinking about this one today. And… Mia Goth!

We also enjoyed a pretty sexy pre-movie short tonight. Wet by Ecole des Nouvelles Images. Take a look

Also… a surprise appearance from one Andrew Kozak tonight. Long time no see!
