Blitz - Sir Steve McQueen’s new feature Blitz follows the treacherous journey of George (Elliott Heffernan), a 9-year-old boy in World War II London whose mother Rita (Saoirse Ronan) sends him to safety in the English countryside. George, defiant and determined to return home to his mom and his grandfather Gerald (Paul Weller) in East London, embarks on an adventure, only to find himself in the midst of the London blitz, an unthinkable concentration of aerial bombing that took place over 57 days and nights. Meanwhile, a distraught and desperate Rita searches for her missing son.

The film is 120 minutes and starts at 7:30pm. We can meet in the lobby and say Hi.
