CRUMBS + Q&A (UK Premiere)

Director: Miguel Llansó
Country: Spain/Ethiopia
Year: 2015
Running time: 68min

The story is set against the background of spectacular post-apocalyptic Ethiopian landscapes, where our diminutive superhero Gagano – on the one hand gripped by daydreams and on the other by constant fears – has had enough of collecting the valuable crumbs of decayed civilisation, the valuable high points of which are merchandise from Michael Jackson and Michael Jordan. When a spaceship that has been hovering high in the sky for years starts showing signs of activity, Gagano has to overcome his fears – but also a witch, Santa Claus and second-generation Nazis – to find out that things aren’t quite the way he thought.

Followed by a Q&A. Tickets available from the Hackney Picturehouse website here.
