Art of Action: LUMI's Action-Packed All-Nighter Strap in tight and hold on to your hats, our LUMI programmers have selected five action-packed flicks with enough thrills to keep your heart pumping right through until breakfast.
Ticket price includes breakfast for those still standing come morning. This event is for over 18s only and alcohol sales will end at 1am.
POLITE SOCIETY
Martial artist-in-training Ria (Priya Kansara) must save her older sister Lena (Ritu Arya) from her impending marriage. LUMI programmer Molly Qualter says: “Through a mix of high-energy action, sharp wit, and emotional depth, Polite Society redefines what it means to fight back in a world that often underestimates young women.”
DIR: NIDA MANZOOR • 2023 • UK • 1 HR 43 MINS • F-RATED
THE HEROIC TRIO
Michelle Yeoh, Maggie Cheung, and Anita Mui are knife-throwing, shotgun-toting, kung-fu-fighting super-heroines who must overcome their dark pasts in order to defeat evil. LUMI programmer Reidy says: “This madcap spin on the genre features a trinity of stars and a baby-stealing eunuch!”
DIR: JOHNNIE TO • 1993 • HONG KONG, CHINA • 1 HR 28 MINS • SUBTITLED • F-RATED
FALLEN ANGELS
A hitman, his business partner and a mute delinquent wreak mischief in a metropolis that never sleeps. LUMI programmer Ben Paratian says: "This hits every mark of what you'd expect from a Wong Kar-Wai film; its mesmerising visuals and ethereal soundtrack capturing a sultry dreamlike essence. Fallen Angels is best enjoyed at night, for full immersion."
DIR: WONG KAR-WAI • 1995 • HONG KONG • 1 HR 36 MINS • SUBTITLED
FOXY BROWN
Foxy Brown (Pam Grier) poses as a sex worker to infiltrate a gang of mobsters who butchered her boyfriend. LUMI programmer Molly Qualter says: “A transgressive film that redefines traditional representations, showcasing black women in heroic roles that blend violence, sexuality and everything in between!”
DIR: JACK HILL • 1974 • USA • 1 HR 31 MINS
MONKEY MAN
After years of suppressed rage, an anonymous young man in a gorilla mask (Dev Patel) unleashes an explosive campaign of retribution against the men who took everything from him. LUMI programmer Ben Lindsay says: “Even if you’re beginning to nod off at this point in the all-nighter, Dev Patel’s directorial debut will whip you back into shape.”
DIR: DEV PATEL • 2024 • USA, CANADA, SINGAPORE, INDIA • 1 HR 57 MINS • PARTIALLY SUBTITLED
