Zodiac Killer Project + Charlie Shackleton Q&A

Standard Tickets: £7 / Concessions: £5 (Low/No Income, Over 60s, Under 18) / Student: £3

Join Waltham Forest Cinema Project for a live Q&A with filmmaker Charlie Shackleton, director of Beyond Clueless, The Afterlight and Paint Drying.

True crime is almost inescapable in modern media, even as real crime rates drop worldwide. There is no act of solved or unsolved villainy that has not been covered by documentaries, fictionalised on screen or dissected by podcasters. Filmmaker Charlie Shackleton set out to make his own contribution to the genre, adapting a memoir that seemed to solve one of the great mysteries: who was the Zodiac serial killer?

But on the eve of production, the rights to tell this story were revoked. Shackleton takes this obstruction as a jumping off point to imagine what his film could have been, and along the way takes a sharp look at what true crime has become. Curious, probing and also very funny, Zodiac Killer Project asks what happens when the way we tell our stories can only travel along set paths.
