\n24 April \u2013 4 May 2014

\nStratford Picturehouse and BFI Southbank

\nSCI-FI-LONDON website<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The London International Festival of Science-Fiction and Fantastical Film returns for the 14th time with a programme packed with discoveries from Hungary to the Dominican Republic, programmes of shorts and special events including the 25th anniversary of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 and anim&#233 and aliens all-nighters.<\/p>\n

Taking place at Stratford Picturehouse and BFI Southbank, it opens on 24 April with the premiere of American psychological thriller Lost Time<\/i> and closes on 4 May with spectacular French-Canadian sci-fi romance Upside Down<\/i>.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re particularly looking forward to Suicide or Lulu and Me in a World Made for Two<\/i>, inspired by Adolfo Bioy Casares\u2019s brilliant novella The Invention of Morel<\/i>, The Phoenix Project<\/i>, described as \u2018Primer<\/i> meets Frankenstein<\/i>\u2019 and noir<\/i> action thriller The Scribbler<\/i>. We\u2019re also intrigued by supernatural love story Soulmate<\/i>, speculative exploration of genomics The Perfect 46<\/i>, Dominican Republic thriller Wake<\/i> and offbeat Belgian oddity When I Will Be Dictator<\/i>.<\/p>\n
