Yardie + Idris Elba satellite Q&A

Director
Idris Elba
Certificate
15
Running Time
102 mins

Premiered to decidedly unenthusiastic reviews at the Sundance Film Festival, Idris Elba‘s directorial debut is a crime drama that cannot be accused of stinting on the Jamaican patois.

An adaptation of Victor Headley‘s cult 1992 novel, it follows Jamaican crim D (Aml Ameen) who’s sent on a drug-running mission to London. This preview screening includes a satellite Q&A with Idris Elba and guests.
