£15 Per Car (max 4 persons)
TICKETS ONLSALE UNTIL ONLINE 3PM TODAY, THEN AVALIABLE ON THE GATE. ONLY A FEW LEFT SO COME EARLY TO MAKE SURE YOU GET A SPACE.
Join AND in a filmic foray that abandons the movie theatre in favour of pubs, galleries, safari parks and the great outdoors.
AND is transforming Preston’s thriving covered market into a cinematic
platform for Nicholas Roeg’s stunning sci-fi classic, The Man Who Fell
To Earth. Focusing on an extraterrestrial (David Bowie) visiting Earth
to get water for his drought stricken planet, Roeg’s meditative
capturing of earthly pleasures, alienation and the
destructive pull of greed is an alluring yet dispiriting vision of the not too distant future.
- The film is strictly an 18 Certificate so there will be ID check on entry
- No Vans or large vechiles allowed

Abandon Normal Devices
Across the Northwest Summer 2012
Manchester Festival 29 August - 02 September 2012
Abandon Normal Devices is a call to arms, a festival that questions the norm and champions a different approach.
A catalyst for production and experimentation, AND exists to create a space where artists and filmmakers can offer striking new perspectives, and visitors can enjoy, discuss and interact with ideas.
Every year we welcome audiences to experience the best in new cinema and digital culture, in an experience that spills from the screens and galleries into the streets and imaginations of the Northwest
