A Matter of Life and Death, GFT

2,3 and 4 January, 2017
Fantastical and romantic, A Matter of Life and Death stars David Niven as an RAF pilot who must appeal to a celestial court after accidentally being allowed to evade death. Celebrated filmmaking duo Powell and Pressburger cross boundaries of narrative, metaphysics and technology in pursuit of one of their finest tales; an experimental and expressive voyage through love and life. The film playfully juxtaposes a Technicolor world of living, breathing passion and a monochrome afterlife governed by rigid rules. New Digital Restoration
