CHILDREN OF MEN Director: Alfonso Cuarón 2006, USA/UK, 110 mins Book cinema tickets Alfonso Cuarón’s depiction of London in 2027 is loosely based on P.D. James’ 1992 novel of the same name.

Although commencing with a bleak view of the future, the film focuses on the themes of hope, redemption and faith. Stunning set pieces combine with great performances from, amongst others, Clive Owen, Michael Caine and Julianne Moore.
