Eraser Children at Sci-Fi London May 2nd

Eraser Children will be having a European premiere next month at the Sci-Fi London Film Festival. The single showing for the feature begins Sunday, May 2nd at 6:00pm and for those who do not know, the film blends "The Matrix [with] 1984 by way of Max Headroom" (Sci-Fi). Eraser Children also envisions a world so controlled that dreaming requires payment and laughing will surely lead to a fine. Director Nathan Christoffel's film has already won numerous awards including Best Australian Film x2 and Best Supporting Actor, with the Sci-Fi London showing likely to continue the film's winning streak. A synopsis, trailer, and poster are available here before the premiere.

The synopsis for Eraser Children:

"In a dystopia of useless products, pre-paid dreams, and a system of violations so invasive that if you laugh too loudly you will be fined, Misner Corporation has invented a new source of energy, generating a monopoly on all facets of human existence. The world is now a totalitarian global state ruled by one man. Anyone unwilling to work for Misners regime lives underground in a dark world of insane system dropouts. Finnegan Wright, a lower level worker at Misner Corp. is taken on an enthralling journey when one of these dropouts kidnaps Finnegan and tries to convince him to change the fate of the world by killing Misner" (Eraser).

Release Date: May 2nd (Limited Run, UK).
