Be among one of the first audiences in the world to see this great film, being presented to you by Karori Lions Club (UK release on 9 September, and US and most of the world on the 16th - the day after our screening).

"See How They Run" is an original story by Mark Chappell. Here is the official synopsis:
"In the West End of 1950s London, plans for a movie version of a smash-hit play come to an abrupt halt after a pivotal member of the crew is murdered. When world-weary Inspector Stoppard and eager rookie Constable Stalker take on the case, the two find themselves thrown into a puzzling whodunit within the glamorously sordid theater underground, investigating the mysterious homicide at their own peril."
