*EDIT* This movie will now be screening on Friday the 15th on May! *EDIT*

On Saturday the 16th of May we have been blessed with the opportunity to watch the legendary AKIRA at our local indie cinema - Create Studios! This iconic movie has influenced generations of films after it. This is not one to miss. Parents, please be advised that this is a 15 so I recommend watching the trailer yourself before bringing younger viewers.

My tickets are already booked and I hope to see you there!
