Monkey Man – Opening Night Gala
Thursday 4 April from 6:30pm to 8:50pm
Celebrate the release of Dev Patel’s highly-anticipated directorial debut with the year’s first must-see exhilarating action thriller. Directed by and starring Patel and produced by Academy Award winner Jordan Peele, witness one man’s rampaging quest for vengeance against the corrupt leaders who murdered his mother.
Inspired by the legend of Hanuman, an icon embodying strength and courage, Monkey Man stars Patel as Kid, an anonymous young man who ekes out a meagre living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he is beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash. After years of suppressed rage, Kid discovers a way to infiltrate the enclave of the city’s sinister elite. As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.
Opening Night Gala: Thursday 4 April 6:30pm. Includes a glass of sparkling on arrival!
