Captioned Screening: This screening of Blitz on Sunday November 10 at 1:00pm will be presented with on-screen captions.

In World War II London, nine-year-old George is evacuated to the countryside by his mother, Rita, to escape the bombings. Defiant and determined to return to his family, George embarks on a journey back home as Rita searches for him.

Actually, for the patriotic, British filmmaking this bravura should be a source of pride. And never is Blitz greater than in the odyssey of George. – Financial Times

McQueen—a director who understands we can only look forward by looking back—gives us a new lens through which to examine WWII in this masterful film. – Observer
