Elli Films, in association with Mind Engagement Productions and Unfolding Entertainment are thrilled to announce that following its European Premiere at SCI-FI-LONDON FILM FESTIVAL, Voidance is now set for a limited UK Q&A Screening tour.
The time-loop sci-fi thriller is still confirmed for a UK, US, CAN, AUS & NZ digital release at the end of May, however due to popular demand, the film will be hitting UK cinemas as special One-Night-Only Q&As.
Voidance will have special Cast & Producer Q&As in Cambridge on 5th June, Bristol on 11th June, and finally in London on 19th June as part of a special Networking with The Filmmakers Podcast, plus Director Q&A. More dates to be announced!
Voidance is directed by Marianna Dean (Breaking Infinity) and stars James Cosmo (Game of Thrones, Braveheart), Zoe Cunningham (Breaking Infinity), Neil Bishop (Beautiful Disaster, Beautiful Wedding), Mim Shaikh (Queenie, Informer), Billy Price (Hollyoaks) & Chris Charles (Hollyoaks, Mrs Sidhu Investigates).
In order to become an ATIC agent, Alana Toro faces her final assessment. Inside a simulated space station bar, she must prevent a terrorist attack before it happens. Each failed attempt allows her to restart the scenario, but with limited chances to get it right.
As Alana navigates a cast of guarded and unpredictable patrons, gaining trust proves as difficult as identifying the threat itself. With each attempt, new details emerge and assumptions shift, forcing her to rethink who she can rely on. As the pressure builds, Alana is pushed towards an unorthodox solution, one that may challenge everything ATIC expects of her.
Speaking on the UK release, Director Marianna Dean said, “When something has been living in your head for a long time, it’s exciting to see it as a final movie, released into the world. Hearing back how the audience relate to the film is a particular joy.”
“We’re living in a time where the public are becoming increasingly distrustful of those in power: the ones who tell us who the bad guys are and who the good guys are. Sci-fi is an amazing genre to explore those sort of urgent moral questions without our biases from earthly politics – the ATIC universe is rich with galaxies of complex political alliances, warring planets, and corrupt enforcement agencies (sound familiar?), in amongst which Voidance shows us the consequences, and the sacrifices, of making up your own mind.” Tom Taplin, producer.
Voidance will be available on Digital Download in UK & Ireland on 25th May, US & Canada from 26th May and Australia & NZ from 27th May. Due to popular demand, the film will also now be in select UK Cinemas for special Q&A screenings.
