British 1929 science fiction drama, based on a play by NOEL PEMBERTON BILLING, directed by MAURICE ELVEY, starring JAMES CAREW, HUMBERSTONE WRIGHT, and BENITA HUME. The plot and aesthetics of the film are heavily influenced by FRITZ LANG`S METROPOLIS. Women unite to prevent financiers from engineering a socond world war. Sounds surprisingly familiar, doesn`t it?

April is like every year an opportunity to celebrate the birthdays of two great figures of silent cinema - on April 16th, CHARLIE CHAPLIN would have turned 136. On April 20th, HAROLD LLOYD would have turned 132. To celebrate both gentlemen`s birthdays, we invite you to a screening of two shorts: THE PAWNSHOP (1916), and SAFETY LAST! (1921).
