IN CINEMAS NOVEMBER 21
But see it first at this preview screening

SYNOPSIS:

Enjoy a Stone & Wood beer on arrival and be first to see the acclaimed new Hugh Grant-starring horror/thriller, HERETIC from hit-machine A24 and the creators of A Quiet Place.

Two young missionaries are forced to prove their faith when they knock on the wrong door and are greeted by a diabolical Mr. Reed, becoming ensnared in his deadly game of cat-and-mouse.

Coming straight to Dendy from its premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, this nail-biting, fiendishly irreverent chamber horror delights in its deconstruction of religion. Anchored by three fantastic leads, co-stars Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East both give powerhouse performances, but it’s a devastatingly sharp Hugh Grant that steals the show. Deliciously dark and funny, don’t miss this unique genre effort begging to be discussed.

You can also experience the provocative thrill ride in the luxurious Dendy Premium Lounge.

Opening this year’s festival is the Premiere of BLITZ, Steve McQueen’s visually stunning period drama depicting pivotal moments of World War II in London. The powerful and sweeping portrayal of British life during these events, which arrives direct from its London Film Festival Premiere, features stellar central performances from Saoirse Ronan and Paul Weller, in addition to exceptiona newcomer Elliot Heffernen who plays 9 year old George.

Closing this year’s Festival is the exclusive Australian Premiere of the highly anticipated WE LIVE IN TIME. Featuring beautifully nuanced performances from Oscar nominees Florence Pugh and Andrew Garfield, this heart rendering romance delves into the profound question of how to make the most of the time we have in this world.

Screening in special Festival previews one week prior to official opening, and during the festival, is WIDOW CLICQUOT. This British/French co-production based on a true story offers an effervescent portrait of Barbe-Nicole Ponsardin, the “Grande Dame of Champagne,” otherwise known as Veuve Clicquot.

Aylin Tezel’s directorial debut FALLING INTO PLACE is screening in its Australian Premiere at the Festival. The tender drama follows Kira (played by Tezel) and Ian, each fleeing their own personal struggles, who cross paths during a winter weekend on the Isle of Skye. Their connection is profound but when they return to London, they must both confront their past.

The Festival is excited to present the romance FOUR LETTERS OF LOVE, featuring a commanding ensemble cast including Pierce Brosnan and Helena Bonham Carter. Polly Steele’s beautiful story follows Nicholas and Isabel who are destined for each other, As ghosts, fate and the sheer power of true love pull them together, so too does life threaten to tear them apart.
