Preview: The Day Shall Come + Q & A Chris Morris
Tuesday, 17 September, 2019
Master satirist Chris Morris makes a welcome return to the cinema with The Day Shall Come, his first feature since Four Lions. In Miami, where poverty and wealth sit uneasily together, unstable preacher Moses (Marchánt Davis) leads a small band of African-American locals who are angered by racial injustice and preparing for a race war. Meanwhile the equally bumbling FBI are trying to identify terrorists before they strike and are happy to advance their careers whilst exploiting opportunities. ‘Based on a hundred true stories’ this is a scything indictment of US homeland security, contemporary politics and desperate careerism. Hectic, hilarious and frequently devastating.
Followed by a Q&A with director Chris Morris.
