Bad Day at the Office (with Director Q + A)
A screening of the first-person thriller Bad Day at the Office, followed by a conversation with director Chee Keong Cheung.
About it
British-Chinese filmmaker Chee Keong Cheung, founder of Action Xtreme, the UK's first action-focused film studio, is in conversation after the screening to talk about the making of his high octane thriller shot entirely in first person.
Karl (John Hannah) wakes in a wrecked hotel room with no memory, a dead body in the bathtub, and the police knocking at his door. Reluctantly forced to team up with hotel maid Molly, he's thrust into a deadly game of cat and mouse through a city that wants him dead. Hunted, confused and with no idea who to trust, Karl must rely on long-buried instincts to survive — and uncover the truth behind his lost identity.
