Steven Spielberg's sci-fi family epic screens for one day only as part of the Cosmic Frequencies Festival. See the main event here.
Renowned director François Truffaut, in his only acting role outside of his own films, plays French scientist Claude Lacombe who heads up a team of government scientific researchers as they investigate strange occurrences around the world until they find themselves directed towards Devils Tower near Moorcroft, Wyoming, USA. At the same time, family man Roy Neary (Richard Dreyfuss) experiences an extra-terrestrial encounter, along with a small group of others, and becomes obsessed with the lights he has seen.
With its 4K digital remaster, the film has never looked better. The effects, especially the mothership emerging from the sky, have been beautifully crafted and have stood the test of time. This is a film not to be missed on the big screen and all tickets are just £6.
