All Is Lost
 
Date: Wednesday, 4th June 
Time: 18:30
Venue: Gate Cinema Cork
Cost: €7
To book: here 

Cork Film Festival is delighted to present a screening of All Is Lost.Other than a snippet of prologue voiceover and the Man (Robert Redford) once howling an expletive, this is a silent film.  And what a hugely sonically and visually rich, narratively compelling and technically extraordinary one it is. The Man awakens to discover that an adrift shipping container has punched a hole in his yacht. An able, strong, resourceful and capable mariner, the Man battles misfortune and diminishing resources until, at the denouement, he can see the whites of his own mortality’s eyes.J.C.
