Detroit, GFT until 7 September, 2017

Academy Award winning director Kathryn Bigelow again teams up with screenwriter Mark Boal (The Hurt Locker, Zero Dark Thirty) for another gripping suspense thriller, based on a true story. Detroit follows the five-day riots that engulfed the Midwestern city in 1967, and is an incendiary portrait of police brutality and racism in America. Centring on the Algiers Motel incident, a fatal police raid that occurred on July 25, 1967, Bigelow crafts a powerful and visceral film. British actors John Boyega and Will Poulter head up the superb young cast of this tense and timely drama.
