Children of Men

Denton Reads
Chilton Hall, Room 111

London, 2027. Humanity has become infertile and no child has been born for 18 years. Science is at loss to explain the reason. Immigration is a crime and refugees are caged like animals. African and East European societies have collapsed and their dwindling populations are migrating toward England and other wealthy nations. Torn apart by nuclear fallout, rampant terrorism and political rebellion. In this climate of nationalistic violence, a London peace activist turned bureaucrat Theo Faron, joins forces with Julian, his revolutionary ex-wife, in order to save mankind by protecting a woman who has mysteriously became pregnant. These three set out on a desperate struggle to deliver the world's only pregnant woman to the Human Project with hope that they can discover the cure for global infertility. As they carefully navigate between the battling forces of military police and a pro-immigration insurgency this small group must endure a death-defying ordeal of urban warfare.

Dreams with Sharp Teeth: A Film About Harlan Ellison

Denton Reads
Chilton Hall, Room 111

"You have to accept that you have somebody who is partly one of the greatest writers of the 20th century...and partly an alternately impish and furious 11-year-old-boy. Or possibly 9-year-old boy. Or possibly a 5-year-old boy. " - Neil Gaiman on Harlan Ellison

"An infinitely enjoyable profile of a prickly (but lovable) icon of the American literary landscape." - Exclaim

"In between all the writing, he feuded with Frank Sinatra, sang alongside Barbra Streisand in a Village cafe, and marched with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. If that's not a life worthy of a film, we're not sure what is" - New York Magazine.

 

25 years in the making, Dreams With Sharp Teeth is a literary documentary that brings Harlan Ellison, his magnetic personality and amazing work to life, with appearances from Robin Williams and author Neil Gaiman.
