From 18 October - 24 October Dundee fans can see claim their FREE cinema ticket to watch one of the numerous screenings of Prisoners (15) at the DCA simply by producing their Season Ticket & DFC Discount Card. Québécois filmmaker Denis Villeneuve (Incendies) makes his English-language debut with Prisoners, a tense psychological thriller about kidnapping, revenge and redemption. Don’t let the long running time put you off: this superbly made film will have you on the edge of your seat (and possibility gripping the armrests) from beginning to end. Keller Dover (Hugh Jackman) is facing every parent’s worst nightmare. On Thanksgiving weekend his six year-old daughter Anna and her friend Joy go missing. As minutes turn to hours, panic sets in. The only lead is a dilapidated van that had earlier been parked on their quiet street. Heading the investigation, methodical Detective Loki (Jake Gyllenhaal) arrests its driver, Alex Jones (Paul Dano), but a lack of evidence forces his release. As the police pursue multiple leads, pressure mounts and knowing his child’s life is at stake, the frantic Dover decides he has no choice but to take matters into his own hands. But just how far will this desperate father go to protect his family? Prisoners is a dark, smart, complex and ambitious film which will keep you guessing right up until the very last moments. Beautifully shot by Roger Deakins, with a haunting score and exceptional performances from all the cast – especially Gyllenhaal, Jackman, Paul Dano and Terrence Howard – this is without a doubt one of the best movie experiences of the year. Screenings: Wed 23 October: 20:15 Thu 24 October: 15:00 & 20:15
