EXODUS Penny Woolcock, Bernard Hill DVD NEW

In this nightmare vision of the future, neo-fascist politician (Bernard Hill) clears the streets of people he considers a blight on society, confining immigrants, drug addicts and criminals into a ghetto called Dreamland. When his adopted son (Daniel Percival) discovers that his real parents are imprisoned refugees, his attempts to help them escape result in a catastrophic war in which the brutally oppressed resort to brutal means to win their freedom. From award-winning director Penny Woolcock (The Death of Klinghoffer), comes a provocative, searingly political updating of the Old Testament story, filmed in Margate, England. Featuring veteran actor Bernard Hill, a fresh supporting cast drawn from local communities and the real life Burning Man project by well- known artist Anthony Gormley, this is a truly unique and relevant film experience"
