from email, updated 11 May 2009:

This May we got three events in our small but perfectly formed Social Centre space: "Chop Shop", directed by Ramin Bahrani, then a night of dystopian sci-fi films to get you scared for the future. Plus a night of readings and chat from two US zine writers and zine librarians...

Free Film Screening - "Chop Shop", Sunday 17 May 2009 @ 3pm

Full Unemployment Cinema present...

Chop Shop
Directed by Ramin Bahrani, 2007. 84 min.

Chop Shop is an intimate story about a brother and sister who live and work in apart of Queens, New York. The duo, Ale and Isamar, barely survive on the margins of a neighborhood that is far removed from middle class America.

Our characters almost never leave this labyrinthine network of garages, mud and highway. Both characters are played by non-professional actors — both of them get to keep their first names for their characters...
