ABOUT THIS EVENT

In The Man Who Fell To Earth, star David Bowie takes on the otherworldly role he was destined for. An alien, searching for water to save his dying planet, crashes on Earth. To fund his journey back, he creates a technological empire with his advanced knowledge, only to be ensnared in deception and temptation. Director Nicolas Roeg crafts a complex tapestry of allegories around trust, loneliness, desire, and hope. After 50 years, the film remains elusive, mysterious, philosophical, breathtaking, and deeply meaningful. Known for his visually striking and unconventional storytelling, Roeg marries the mundane with the metaphysical, making this film a timeless classic. Join us for the director’s cut, which includes previously censored scenes that showcase Bowie’s unique presence as he embodies the alien struggling to belong in our world.
